Need some help here. My car (71 Swinger was a six cilyinder car but now has a 360. Priblem is finding a power steering pump pressure hose for it. It has a Chrysler pump, which has the male end with o-ring. the problem is finding a hose that has a 90 degree angle to fit between the pump and the metal engine mount. Does anyone have any ideas or sugestions .

Thanks, any and all help is appreciated.

Most Napa auto parts stores can make you one. Pretty much any hydraulic hose place can as well. I just did this on my 68 Dart, which has a 360 in it. Prior owner had some cobbled up mess going on. I cut it in two pieces and used the old hose to mock up a new hose ( I got the length figured out and then taped the hose ends in place exactly has I needed them) Make sure that you get your placement of each hose end mocked up just right because the hose is tough and cannot be twisted very much to get your 90 degree angle end in place. Down side is that this route is pricey. I think my hose was about $65.
