My PS project.

http://www.shoforum.com/showthread.php?t=97869

rack, filter, high and low pressure rack lines, fluid for preflush and fluid for post install. Pump looks to be ok. anything else?

I also have the instructions from another thread with pictures and as well as the 10 things to consider when doing the project.

I'm going with the sho specific rack rather than the SLO rack...not worth the hassle if something goes wrong.

Theres 3 lines , one pressure , 2 returns. One from the rack to the cooler , and one from the cooler back to the system.

The return line is just bulk tubing right ? Did I misunderstand the diections?
the return line from the cooler secures with compression clamps on both ends, not fittings. so I guess that would make it bulk tubing...

there's technically four lines if you include the line from the reservoir to the pump. just read your previous thread. you probably don't need to worry about the reservoir to pump line

Castrol Syntec semi-synthetic power steering fluid (this or some other heavy duty fluid such as Redline is a must). Consider adapting a return filter from the newer Tauri

The 1.99 inline filter from a1-cardone is one recommended in various threads searched here, looks kinda small....though a parts search at autozone revealed that filter as well as a 23.00 one that looked like a fuel filter size. Dont know which one fits or works better or who had experience with either.
