So I have this replacement cooling loop for the power steering that came with my Rx7store vmount kit.
Question is how much psi runs through the cooling loop?
I'd imagine it's low pressure seeing as the stock line is help on by clamps and aren't completely high pressure lines.
I have the loop set up with AN self clamping fittings and just want to make sure it's within the allowed pressure rating. (200-250psi or so)



Going to be putting it above the radiator although I know some people put it behind the fan shroud.

Thanks for any input.

 

i'm not sure either, but its not high pressure. i would think its something less than 100psi...

 

Low pressure. The factory hoses there are rubber.

 

Yep, low pressure. Using AN fittings there is a waste of money and overkill. Proper fitting hose, hose clamps, and pipe beads on the pipes is more than enough.

I actually ditched that loop on my car and got a small power steering cooler to replace it. Much neater and cleaner. If you can find my build thread, I think I have some info/pics on it in there.

Only reason I'm using AN is because I had them as spare and I got some real cheap from an Oreillys I manage due to inventory issues.
I've also debated a small cooler for it too though..

 

An aftermarket cooler, PS hose and hose clamps from the auto parts store, and bam! You're done.
