Borgeson Power Steering Thoughts....

Not to Hijack RRR thread but what pulley are you talking about? I have the factory 66’ pump on my 273 with the factory pulley and cast iron water pump . The lines Bergman sells screwed directly to the pump and box and honestly my steering work great. No troubles or belt slip. Not tough to steer or too easy either. Federal style with a (approx) 4.5” pulley is what I have. I see the trw styles have the what looks like a 6” pulley.

I am ordering a complete kit to convert manual to power steering so Bergman is supplying PS pump, PS bracket along with PS box hoses etc. Bergman says an obsolete pulley is needed for his PS pump in order to line up with my original '69 pulleys. My car is original AC manual steering car so original AC crank pulley has a groove for PS belt. Bergman is deleting crank pulley and adding PS pulley from his Master Kit he sells. So Berman is customizing kit to work with my original crank pulley hence need for obsolete PS pump pulley per Bergman that what Pete says is needed. Most kits out there cater to the '70 up aluminum water pump diff pulley offsets from '69 and earlier belt offsets. Hopefully that clears up confusion.
