E46 Power Steering rack swap

[potatomash]

Hey guys,

Just picked up a e46 quick rack for my e30 (RHD). Just summing up all the bits I need, when it comes to the fluid lines, I see that the E46 uses a slightly different PS pump than the E30. I know some hoses require bending and what not, but in terms of all these hoses connecting to the pump is it straightforward, or are there some issues cause of the different pump styles?

Cheers

So I removed my old rack and sized up the new one last night.

The clearance to the headers and universal joint is like 2mm.

I've ordered new AKG 75d motor mounts, do you think this will solve my problem?
