I would be interested in doing this also.....was thinking of using some carl Davey manifold spacers to see if that would help as i am having to squeeze a bigger 3" samco intake hose on soon..???

havent done this to my car...but a mate of myn has.....fitted 10mm manifold spacers, the samco inlet hose and then used a spec-R remote power steering resevoir....

tbh the kit is gd enough but we have had some problems getting it to seal on top of the pump, and becuase of this the power steering hasnt been its gd self.

so best advice although the kit is gd i would get a pro to do it...otherwise it cost u a lot in p/s fluid!!!!!!!
