i have a procharged ls1 video on here of my truck running without the power steering pump. it used to have one, but the procharger threw the belt and it sawed into the reservoir and killed the pump. ive been running it now for a couple weeks and have`nt had any problems. the belt comes extremly close,but does`nt touch the bracket bolts.

Are you running P/S ?

I just bought an Idler pulley from NAPA and in process of adapting it to the engine in place of the pump.

I think we are having spacers made right now to do the idler pulley setup. If not, we could make a bracket for you. We do it on the dyno all the time.
