I had a 1982 Grumman step van on a p-30 chassis, with power steering and hydroboost. As delivered to Grumman, the power steering and the hydroboost were plumbed in series, with the hydroboost closest to the pump, plumbing wise, with the drain side of the hydroboost going to the power steering unit. No tees.

My own involvement is spotty, of course, but it’s only email.
