racing has a power steering pump bracket i can buy.....its for a saginaw style pump...does anyone know if it will work with my /6 pump?

I know on the Federal pumps that they will work. The brackets and the pulleys are different though.

I have some brackets ! But I am not sure what they are for.

Maybe some one can look real close at this picture and see what I have.

Give me a few minutes and I will get a better picture up.

i dont see anything that would work mike...but thanks. when did the trw pump come into play...cus it seems the federal and trw pumps look very similar...

answered my own question...Federal pump has a tapped hole in the end of the pump shaft.

TRW/Thompson pump has a hex-shaped hole or no hole in the end of the pump shaft.

Federal pump uses a reservoir cap with "ears" much like a radiator cap.

TRW/Thompson pump uses a reservoir cap that is round and may have vertical serrations but no "ears".

NOTE: Federal pump reservoir cap will fit on a TRW/Thompson pump

My new camera Eats batteries so I had to use my old stand by.
Sorry for the bad pictures. I think this could be a power steering pump bracket but I am not sure, if some one can chime in here you can have it for shipping.
