Default Power Steering pump in the way?

Do you have forward facing turbo headers?

Is your power steering pump in the way?

Do you just want a slimmer engine profile?

Well check this out. We just finished our power steering pump relocation kit.
We will have more pics of all the components included soon.
This kit will also include a custom lines and fittings.
As always it all just bolts right on.

Also curious about the alternator. Guessing this is ls1 aluminum block? Any chance it would work with an iron block?

Should work on an iron block but we haven't tried it yet.

Does work with our alternator relocation kit pictured below.

It won't matter if the block is iron or aluminum, the bolt holes that are used for
the water pump bolts on the drivers side is what holds the idler bracket and the
power steering bracket uses the bolt holes in the drivers head.

I know what you're thinking, the iron blocks are missing two bolt holes low on the drivers side. These brackets are not affected by this either way.

Very nice. It was a huge PITA to get one for LS2Formula. Josh @ KYTP ended up having to buy a few in order to get a run made on them from Shearer to make it worth their time IIRC.

It's very much alive!

We are just waiting on the custom power steering lines to come in. We should have complete kit pics soon.

Also we are going to make 10 in the first batch. We are accepting pre-orders.

Can you PM me pricing of it, maybe with your alternator relocation too?! This would be a sick package deal.

FYI, a pulley from a 94 V6 Corsica is 1.4" smaller than the Fbody pulley, and has the same shaft size. NAPA also stocks a belt that is 1.5" shorter than stock. I have both now, and they work like a charm. If it spins the pump too fast and kills it, then I'll go with manual rack. Until then, this will get me buy under 50 bucks. Pulley= $14, Belt= $30

If you offer the kit lines should be separate, or a build your own line kit for those of us that will not use it in an f body. It would be nice it was moved even more and used a smaller pulley.


I doubt that it will be spun too fast and if it is there a ton of GM's (and other makes) that use the same pump with varying pressure and flow rates, just different reservoirs. pressure can be lowered by cutting the bypass spring ad flow can be adjusted with an orifice.
