    ok here it is. i have 1 1/2 headers on my 302 and power steering. just swapped the I6 or the v8. now im having a hell of a time running the power steering pressure line from the pump to the control valve. normally i wouldnt mind just getting rid of the PS, but ive invested to much time and money into it. how do you guys out there do it?

    there is a bracket available from jeg's, summit, etc that relocates the slave cylinder for the power steering on fords such as mustangs and mavericks. take a look. they're usually around 12-20 dollars i think.

    ive got one of those and its on there, thats not the problem. the problem is that i dont know how mavericks fromt he factory had their pressure line located. by that i mean above or below the motor mount, and where in relation to the oil filter. its all so damn close i dont know what to do.
