Default a power steering q and a timing set q

ok i am looking for a new pulley for my power steering pump preferably metal and of course somewhat nice looking, my stock plastic one broke so you get the idea, also i am looking at getting a performance ps pump while im at it I found one on summit racings website, has anyone used this?

also, is it possible to get a gear driven timing set for the ls1? i like the idea of the gear driven sets over the chain driven.

thanks for anyhelp

Never seen or heard of anyone using or making a gear driven timing set for the LS1. Just either upgrade to a LS2 chain or a double roller & you'll be fine.

Turn one makes the best upgrade PS pump. They are a bit pricy, but are considered to be top of the line. And for the pulley look up Sinister. They make a really nice PS pulley.

Are any sponsors selling the Turn One power steering pump?

Turn one makes a pulley as well, that looks nice and is designed so you no longer have to remove the pulley to access the bolts holding the pump on.
