Default Any good directions for me!!!

I rebuilt my power steering control valve a year ago.
that was not my first time, but this time fluid was gushing
out of it. I also noticed there were other parts shot to,
so I did with out P/S. Now, I am rebuilding the complete
front end without steeroids.

I think I may have put a seal backwards or something
like that, for fluid to spew out like that.
instead of buying another rebuild kit, Where can I get
directions of the way everything go inside. Even with new kits
the directions suck with the exsploded view because it looks
like the company was low on ink at the time of printing them.
I need a clear exsploded view of directions THANKS.

P.S. or wherer can I download, or get them

A good repair manual shows the assembly, but its rather simple. Seals always go with the sharp edge toward the fluid that you are trying to hold in. So both of the end seals go turned in.

Here is a cutaway view of the control valve with some seal sketches that I added that should help you install the seals correctly. Also, there are several more scans from the Chevrolet Shop Manual at www.corvettefaq.com
