Has anyone tried this?

I'm waiting for my oil pan to get finished before I can drop my motor in. Just wondering if this works with our p/s lines also. I would assume so but don't know for sure.

Re: LS swap power steering

are you looking at trying to change the valve out or what? What is wrong with the pump on the engine you are dropping into you swap?

I don't have a pump on the engine going in the truck. Another option is f-body accessories. I have a ls1 water pump and balancer. So I would need a bracket for the alternator and stock Syclone power steering. If anyone has any experience with this let me know. I was looking at Dirty Dingo brackets but they are for truck or corvette accessories.

I used C-5 Corvette everything on my swap. Worked with no issues. You don't have to fab anything. Just spend money. Lots of money.

I have Holley accessories (C5 based) and hydroboost on mine. I had a pressure hose fabbed from a C5 hose and Astro hose. Fits great.

Kwik brackets let you use a stock pump with fbody accessories.
