[QUOTE="rickdb, post: 14337377, member: 104460"] Maybe you can help me? I have a similar engine set-up as you. The problem is I keep blowing power steering pumps! My car is still street legal but it's a full-time autocrosser, it has 315's up front & 335's out back. It has the 8-rib conversion and a 8-rib 5.4L pulley on the pump now, but I guess it's too much load on it when you climb up & down the rpm range and the power steering pump can't take it and the seal blows. I have tried to source out a bigger V-6 8-Rib pulley from the Ford truck/econoline series, and I can't find anything bigger in diameter to slow down the pump! Do you know where I could find a bigger 8-rib pulley, or better yet how are you avoiding this problem? I called Kenne Bell to ask about a set-up like the Cobra's, which have a separate belt for the blower/crank & accesories and they said that they thought about it but never completed the project for the 2V. Any thoughts would be much appreciated! [/QUOTE]
