Power steering hose fitting size - Wurth-It

I need to get the hoses sorted to hook up the P/S on my Ranchero. It runs a Wurth-It conversion which I'm sure uses a GM Cavalier rack. To save me having to take the rack out does anyone know what thread size the rack uses for the hoses?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure Gary/Gasman has A Cavalier rack in one of his, and Gasman's memory is much better than mine. The only thing I remember is they were Metric and I used banjo fittings to make the hookup infinetly easier.
www.purechoicemotorsports.com in Lake Havasu had the metric to AN banjo fittings. They will also know the sizes needed if Gary or others don't.
After my move, my info access is in bad need of a lot of attention, or I could give you some numbers.
I'm also remembering the Cavalier rack was opposite a normal Ford rack in determining whether the large hose or the small hose was the high pressure. Pure Choice can confirm that as well
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

Important:  Large side is pressure.

Thanks for that, now the weathers even colder & wetter than our three week summer I'm trying to get the last bits & pieces finished.
