Default Stainless Marine manifolds SBC power steering line in the way

Got the starboard side on no issues. Got to the port side and the damn power steering line is hitting the manifold and won't let the bolt hole line up. It's a 1994 350 Mag carb engine. Any suggestions? I've tried to rotate the line and it isn't any better.

IMCO sells a bracket for it. Relocates the PS pump and alternator.

Russel makes a fitting that will go into the pump and allow you to put an AN style end on your hose, then you can do what you want. Ran into the same problem with my old boat. I don't know if I have any pics.

I had the same issue, I just carefully bent it out of the way.

Finally got it. Bent the hose a touch and shimmed the alternator bracket off of the engine with a few washers. Belt still lined up ok.
