I'm not sure if I totally understand what you're saying, but have you tried a 45 degree fitting? Sometimes they're lower profile because of the more direct path, but only if you can turn them in a direction that clears whatever is interfering.

Yes very true. I might have to check that out. Might of figured out about the power steering to. Apparently i just have to find a smaller pulley.

Think about what the smaller pulley is going to do before you get one. Might not be the best solution...

Its kinda either that. Find a way to move the whole thing or ditch it alltogether. The worst I think it'll do is burn up the pump quicker. old A-Body guys who do LS swaps have to swap to smaller pulleys.

This car i swear is going to kill me. LOL. Here some updated pics. Still have to figure this damn oil return bung thats in the middle of my K member. Got to finish my crossover pipe but that will come after I get this PS pulley off which is being a pain. Oh the joys of performance.





Got rid of the lexus to day for this. Now, for some reason, white snake is rockin out in my backyard and theres a bunch of dudes with mullets and jean jackets around my house... weird...




Now i have itch to sell the Benz and get a Chevy Beretta Z26 Dale Sr. edition...

-Hot side is about 90% complet i have one small but thats a bigger PITA than i thought justc ause of the angle I made it. I have it cut i just think i can make it a little better.
-Wastegate Flange is welded on and wastegate is mounted. Also have boost controller hooked up just have to mount it somewere.
-Got Rameybuilt to fix the driver side header so it clears the flaming river steering shaft now and still looks good.
-Turbo feed and return line are setup.
-Cold side is halfway completed need a couple tweaks here and there.

*PICS TONIGHT if I get to it*
