The high pressure line will rub on the powersteering pulley, so I need to get another. I tried to get one locally but could not find one. I decided to make one.

The other end attaches to the rack with another fitting. The low pressure is also attached. Its not shown and it was much easier to put together. It needed a straight hardline past the pump pulley.

This is the filter regulator with a fitting the is loose until it pressurizes when the pump is on. As you can imagine, this would not be ideal if the lower fuel line has any movement or vibration when the car is moving.

This was the regulator I got from the a company in Florida. The lower fitting expands whenthe pump is pressurized. As you can imagine, if the lower lower line has any movement the fitting would not be tight.

The company sent me the wrong fitting for the return line by the time I got the 5/16 fitting installed, I didn’t remember which was out vs in. My friend saved the day and I thought it good until I saw it when it pressurized.

With the starter out of the way, the tool will keep the flywheel from turning. The tool had to ground slightly to fit because the steel bellhousing is slightly narrower than the factory aluminum style.

The flywheel has to be accessed to install a locking tool, so I can install the vibration damper/crankshaft pulley.

Using 2 new bolts, install the first at 240 foot pounds then remove the bolt. Insert new bolt to 37 pounds and then turn an additional 140 degrees.
