Default d15b to d16y7 swap. what to do with power steering pump bracket

im kinda puzzled by this.

swapped the motor reused d15b7 intake manifild tranny dizzy and pretty much all the rest of the acessories.

but cant figure out what to do with power steering pump or bracket.

the d16y7 bracket is too small for d15b pump
so i went and got the y7 pump and bracket but the hose fitting is not the same WTF lol

is the steering rack end same on them or different as well.

or what am i supposed to do with this?

right now i just bolted down the d15b PS bracket to y7 block and engine mount but its only holding by 1 bolt... but i dont know what else to do.

I know you can use a '98 - '01 Integra rack and all the lines and reservoir with the Y7 pump. Not sure if there's an easier way than that or not. I was not previously aware that the older style brackets wouldn't bolt up properly.

Use the Y7 bracket and pump, and then you will need to have the Y7 hose fitting brazed onto the D15 hose.

This is usually cheap and most hydraulic shops can do it for you.

EDIT: They may just crimp the Y7 fitting onto the D15 hose.
