Repositioning power steering reservoir - is height an issue?

[roseytvr]

I have fitted a jed crossover manifold and throttle bodies therefore need to relocate the p/s reservoir. As per the title, is height an issue? Does it need to be higher than the pump to prevent fluid flowing back ?

Hi Ian.

How about junking the reservoir and pump which tidies up the bay and fit a combined electric pump and reservoir.

I run a Vectra one in my chim but I believe SteveSPG runs a smaller one in his griff.

Just to add, you don't need the idler pulley so the engine is less crammed in that area.

Mine sits where the dizzy used to be, if you have changed the ecu

Thanks both, Peter, it's awfully crowded in the bay given the twin induction pipes. I do have some space where the dizzie once was so will try to work it in there
