Who runs a home brew full hydro setup ?

pics would be sweet of orbitol mount and how ram was mounted as well as ram size thanks
 
one of the guys here took his stock steering gear box and cut off the worm gear parts and capped teh end and just using the stock valves running to a 2x8 cylinder but i think we has looking for a little bigger ram to slow it down some if i remember right. I'll take a pic if it is at the shop.
 
well i am getting a orbitol valve 3x8 ram hoses and all for 50 bucks but i need to sort of fool around with it and see why it is not performing up to par he said it works awesome with a BB but did not do so well with a Small block hmm i dunno?
 
what would be the difference? The pump is still turning Rs no matter what is driving it. Unless it was a larger pump on the BBC or something...
 
well i got all the stuff 4 lines orbitol and a 2x8 hydro cyl now for doing the pump mod next week oh he also gave me a steering wheel and stuff so next week steering box comes off and what now any pics of how everyones cylinders are mounted i need ideas
 
did anyone get any pictures of how their single ended ram is mounted i need some ideas i want to decide what to do got most of the parts i kinda need an adapter plug tho for the ram but all else is their i need to just mount the valve undecided need pics and mount my ram also undecided
 
Sorry for the delay. I forgot about this post. Pics were just taken kinda dark in the grage if you need something else or a different shot let me know.

take some more of your mounts if possible how do you like your steering thus far stock pump? also so you chopped the steering shaft welded it together with the orb valve shaft?
