·Hydroboost Q\'s
So I have two hydroboost units sitting on my workbench. the first has the side accumulator and the flare fittings. The second has no external accumulator and O-ring fittings.
Is one style better than the other and why? I've seen both used in swaps.
I'm leaning towards the o-ring guy because the hoses match my power steering box (the pump can have the fitting changed easily). I'd hate to have to build a custom hose, only to have it blow in the boonies.
Also, the donor for the external accumulator model, was from a '75 Chevy Cheyenne. It had a great little mounting plate that bolted up to my original setup with minimal modification (drilled 2 additional new holes).
