I mounted a 92' Astro hydroboost upside down using the flat mounting plate. When I went to install the hoses I found that there is a clearance issue between one of the hoses and my valve cover.
I am using a straight adapter (o ring on one side AN fitting on the other) and a 90' Aeroquip fitting.
There is about 1 3/4" between the hydroboost and the valve cover. The fittings I have hit the valve cover.
I imagine I would need at least a 1/2 inch of clearance.
Anyone else run into this problem?
If I have a hose made would they be able to make a 90' bend with a smaller radius?
I would have taken a picture but out of frustration I took out the hydroboost and was going to mount it right side up. Then I decided I did not want to deal with the throttle cable.
