G-Tech Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 The SBC was just a standard oil pan. It was close with the pwr steering rack but it cleared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
660zx Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 What size radiator did you use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Tech Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 The cheapest and easiest thing I did was had the stock one re-cored and they had enuff room to make it thicker. They gutted the cores out and made it a 3 row radiator from 2...aluminum ones work good too. The fan helps alot. I did spend some money on a fan..just don't use a cheap one. A mechanical one might work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
660zx Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 Hey G-tech how did you do power steering on your non ls small block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Tech Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) You can use a GM pwr steering pump. I used one from a 76 caprice.the rack is METRIC pipe thread. That creates the biggest problem.But then figure out which line is the pressure line and which is the low pressure return line (I can let u know in a couple days which one is what). The return line you can cut and put a rubber hose over it with a hose clamp and run that to the pump. The feed/ high pressure line you can buy the right fitting from summit racing to fit in the steering rack and make a high pressure steel braided line to the steering pump. Or the way I first did which was cheaper was like the picture. I took and shortened the original feed line and had a hydraulic hose attached with like a pressure fitting at a local auto shop that could make it, and it has the right fitting on the other end for the GM pump. It wasn't an autozone, but like a small local shop.there might be other ways but thats what we came up with at the time..that should sum up that chapter, good luck, let me know how it goes and/or what's next....
