SBC Swap: PS pressure hose problem

[Gatez]

Ok I'm trying to figure out how to solve my Power Steering pressure hose problem. So my PS pump is the inverted flare style while the buick hose is 1.5mm male o ring. So do they make fittings that would work or do they make custom pressure hoses.

here are the pressure hose specs:

Chevy hose
Fitting A Size in mm 7/16 inch
Fitting B Size in mm 3/8 inch
Fitting A Type Male Inverted Flare
Fitting B Type Male Inverted Flare

Buick Hose
Fitting A Size in mm 16
Fitting B Size in mm 18
Fitting A Type 1.5mm Male O Ring
Fitting B Type 1.5mm Male O Ring

What fitting would I need if they make a fitting?

do you still have the original pump and hose? use the original hose and the fitting in the back of the pump that the hose screws into interchanges.

I just used a matched set of Chevy pump from a Caprice and the line off a Monte Carlo of the same year as my car's steering box. Are you trying to use the Buick V6 line with a SBC? Also, what year is your car's steering box off of? I think they changed from an inverted flare to an O ring around 1978 or 79.
