The powersteering fluid holder is attached to the pump its self. the pump is below the alternator and tensioner pulley on the pass side. It'* down low and if you follow the belt it'* between the waterpump and the harmonic balancer(crank pulley).

The series 2 has more hp and a little more torque but depending on your body styles(se/sse/ssei) the 97 is heavier.

The power steering can be a pain to reach sometimes.

Have fun with your new car. Let'* see some pics.

The Series II engine has 205HP and 230ft-lbs stock. I would get a 180* t-stat on there soon. You wanna keep that engine cool.
