Also wrapped the exhaust to keep some heat off the p/s lines. Not to sure I'm happy with the steering. I went with a new CB pump, new box and a 1.5 ram from PSC. With -12 feed, -8 pressure to pump, all returns -8 and -6 to the ram. I was trying to improve the quickness or speed. But still seems to have bit of a lag when I try and whip the wheel back and forth.

For shits and giggles, try a 2" ram... On 4502 the steering improved going from the 1.5 to 2". Yes, I know the differences, and yes I was concerned with stalling. I stalled the steering at Glen Helen once, so that really concerned me. But going to the 2" made the steering faster and easier.
 
Wayne you recommend a different type. I already had one so I just picked another one up. I'll swap them out it need be.
Thanks.
I think he is referring to the lack of them on the supply and return.

What filters and fittings are those? I couldn't find any that fit good.

Jeep is looking really good! Can't wait to see it next Monday.
Thanks and can't wait to see how it does next to your LS.

How tuning go?
Tuning went great other than a large oil leak at the valve cover. It feels like I doubled the power and pulls a lot more in the higher rpm's.

Thanks. I'm going to try one other thing and it that does work I'll go back to the larger ram.

He was:D The filters are a Bosch filter. I'll get the part number when I get home. They do take a special AN fiting.

The only pic I got of it in the light. Wrapped the down pipe to keep the heat of the p/s lines. The little man is ready for his first race.
