Default Driftmotion.com sc400 power steering hose

Anyone installed on an sc400? I read on here that the line is long, crush washer are too big for the sc300 and if it is the same type of fittings on the sc400 hose, I don't see how pump connection (90 degree vs. oem banjo bolt) would clear the firewall on a 400.
I live in remote Southwest Texas and the closest hydraulic shop is 2 hours away and my car is already down for maintenance. They said I could mail it, but I'm not sure they would get it all correct. Tried to reach a hydraulic shop referenced on Cl near Ft. Worth, but it seems they have closed.

Weird, they are priced different on the same page. I don't think that long 90 degree fitting will work on the pump on sc400 then, the stock banjo barely clears firewall.

Maybe the 90 degree is different. I bought it for a 400 when I had it and I ended up swapping to a 2j and not issues,

the washers are a little big, you can use them but you have to make sure they are centered up nearly perfect. You can also cut the stock washer and use it.

I have an sc300 and it is a little long, i have a friend who works at a nitrous company and I had him cut it down and put a new fitting on one side

Oh, I didn't realize you had it in an sc400 with a 2jz. Anyhow, i talked to Mary there yesterday and she said it was made for the 400 and fit so i ordered. I will update.
