this "normally" wont cause any issues if it has not been drive much but will make the steering way to light and will increase the heat build up in the fluid as it tries to bypass too much fluid. as well it may cause air in the system and it will be impossible to bleed out.
Hello Blake

Honestly you have been very supportive and answered all my queries whenever I send you or I had sent you PMs.

The leak at the hose fitting is the high pressure one that is coming from the pump. However, not quiet sure about the capacity of the pump itself. It is the one that came with crate engine.

Unfortunately I am using the ATF from AcDelco.

As per your feeback the pressure line is on the correct port

I am not sure if the mounting bracket was modified. I do appreciate if you send me a photo showing the correct way of mounting the bracket

I will try to get the one from Billet specialities.
