I'm using the small alternator, you can see the in the picture the difference in the height compared to the manifold.
Did u have to trim the hood?

I guess we shall see. Where did you get your hard line?

why go through all of the hassle when a 94 940 non turbo radiator drops right in? Taller by about an inch
I'll be honest - I'm surprised you needed to. My Volvo-OE PS line mated up directly, just had to give it a little bit of snake to clear everything. It was an ABS car though - slightly different routing on the metal part near the fitting to go to the pump. I also test-fit the high-side line from an older 76-84 system, but the lack of 270-degree bend made it a worse fit. I did use an early low-pressure line - the lack of metal line at the rack made it easier to snake around.Power steering pressure line was made by a local hydraulic shop. I took them the GM line and the volvo Line and they made up a new one. <snip>

Just an fyi, you don't want to have your radiator solid mounted like that. That's why every radiator you see in every production car is mounted on rubber mounts. It's prevents electrolysis and stress cracking. Electrolysis is a common problem and it eats radiators
The top doesn't.
Classy!
I pretty much did what Texas240 did, only with my adjustable-style GMT360 pedal (and I've got a spare non-adjustable one, now ). You'll be running years ahead of me!
