A friend of mine has a power steering pump that he says was used on HP big block I would like to use in my 66 chevelle BB swap it has a remote reservoir and 2 return lines from the pump. Whats the other return line for there is no place for it to go to on the reservoir. Anybody help.
Thanks
On the 66 the pressure and return line go to the power steering box. The large hose goes to the reservoir.

This pump has 2 small return lines besides the big one that goes to the reservior
Thanks for any help
That doesn't sound like any Chevelle pump I have seen. Maybe someone else has seen one like it.

It sounds like a pump that came out of a truck with hydraboost brakes. The hydraboost unit has a seperate low pressure return line. That hose can be T'd into the return line from the gear or in some cases the pump reservoir had a second spout brazed on the back for the hydraboost line.
