power steering removal?

[DC_T]

I'm in the middle of my b series swap into my civic, and don't know if i'm going to go through the trouble to keep my ps or just remove it. Just wondering if any of you guys have removed it, and if so, how did you and what did you do w/ the steering rack? I've read a little about looping the two lines back into the rack, and also looping the lines, then T-ing off them to some kind of breather resevior up top. Anybody had any experience w/ these setups?

thanks

thanks for the links man. stealthmode kit is a little too expensive. seems like you could make something like that using rubber lines and brass fittings. Anybody else had any experience w/ anything like this?

lol, well look at the pic and figure it out...

i made one out of brass fittings and a random gm hose

[DC_T]

you remember what size the fittings were? and are you t-ing off the loop and running a breather resevior up top, or just looping the lines together?

i just looped the line. no breather. from what i read on honda-tech it wasnt needed. and no sorry im not sure of the sizes. but if you give me a b series bracket, pump, resivor and hoses, ill give you my kit!

We swap in manual racks to replace the power rack. The manual rack works much better because the gearing is better. They are very easy to put in and can be had from your local junk yard for $50-75
