md power steering

was wondering if anybody knew where to get a char-lynn power steering motor bracket for an md?
or does anyone have a good picture of one so i can make one? (md is different from the m bracket)
i"m going to run the unit from a m&w live pump(which isn"t on yet) through a prince hyd priority flow divider. how much flow does it take to run char-lynn unit? 1.5, 2, or 3 gal? what should the relief pressure be?
i was going to feed the m&w pump from the belly pump resevoir. it has a christmas tree valve. what was the standard relief pressure on the stock belly pump system and where should i set the relief with the m&w pump?. i"m going to use a second control valve with power beyond and adjustable relief(has float detent) for a 3 point.
should i plumb it in before or after the christmas tree valve? sorry. a lot of questions but hydraulics can get confusing. and dangerous if not plumbed properly.
thanks, brad
 
The tree valve dumps into the belly tank, so that pretty much says it has to be the last in the chain. It can't take exhaust pressure, so that is another vote for it being last.

Most working pressures are in the 400 to 800 range normally, but M&W pumps are known to be as high as 1800 depending on model. It is 1200 at least. Reliefs are typically set around 2000 to 2500, which is basically enough to keep good hoses from blowing. (I don't recall the belly pump relief pressure at the moment.)
