Ok i found a Hydraboost unit and master out of a 01 mustang. Now as far as for the lines i know im gonna have to have some made but heres the catch. Im only running the Hydraboost with/out powersteering. So simpler i hope.

Can I get a diagram of this setup im looking for and what pump and bracket could i use.

Motor is a 347 Sbf with an electric water pump and a low mount pass alt bracket. V Belt setup. Im willing to change it up if i have to.

Thanks Dominic

I'm n ot sure if it can happen that way. There are 3 lines on the HB. There are 2 lines on the PS pump. Not sure where the other pressure line off the HB will go. It would go to the steering. There is 2 lines of pressure and a return line off the HB. The PS pump has a pressure line and a return line.. Does the HB have a block on the side with 2 ports?

I'm not familiar enough with the inner-workings of the hydraulic end of the steering, but your idea may not work. The steering gear has a pressure input. The pressure drop is across the gear, not the HB. Hence, there is pressure on the input and output of the hydraboost. If you do not have pressure on the output side of the HB it may never create a hydralically assisted state in the booster.

Paul at Hydratech will know.
