i just had a quick question.. im going to be relocating my power steering tank and i want to run the hoses inside the fender to hide them as much as possible.

the question i have is will that affect the flow from the hydroboost to the power steering pump? im hating how for routed the power steering lines up next to the master cylinder and almost on top of the shock tower but i didnt know if that was done for flow purposes or not..

will moving the lines and having them run lower mess the flow up? thanks in advance

oh and are there special clamps i need to know about or can i just buy the power steering hose and put it onto the fittings?

From what I'm understanding, the powersteering is placed there b/c of a cooling issue, if you move your powersteering hoses, you would might be inclined on running some sort of powersteering cooler.
