I swapped in an 03 LQ4 into my 78 Malibu from an Express van. Here is my issue. I want to run power steering but the issue is the van bracket is too close to the steering gear. I also want to retro the hydraboost as well. I don't want to start swapping brackets.

Does anyone have a part number for a smaller pulley? The max that will fit is 4-7/8. I can easliy pull the pressure relief valve out and shorten the spring to comp for the higher rotating speed.


I know, it is dirty. But I just painted it yesterday.

Cool. $27 shipped on eBay. Just really like power steering. Hope the Hydro-boost will fit.

Hope it works for you. I kept the stock truck accessories after I came to from passing out.....was looking at prices on the March website.
