Default Rack and pinion conversion..what fittings?

Well, I have my rack completed mounted. Nothing seems to bind, and it doesn't hit at any point. I am now at the point I need to connect the pressure and return lines from my 69 power steering pump to the Grand Am rack. I hadn't really looked into this yet, because I wasn't to this point. Can anyone tell me what they did for these connections?

By the way, pics will be coming, but not for a while. I have to leave for work at the last minute, and I only have time to get a few projects completed. When I get back, I will post some pics.

Thanks
Ken

Anybody? The Grand Am rack has two large female ports, and the power steering pump has one large male, and one small male. I just need to get some fittings to mate these together. I think the Grand Am rack uses metric threads? Is this correct?

Thanks
Ken
