where you able to run power steering with any of them.......

if so...

did you change the pulley ?
run everything serp belt and change water pump to run reverse ?
how did you do it.....i know that you have to use the mustang pump cause they are higher pressure....

i miss power steering....

let me know what you did......

thanks in advance.....

I been running them for 10 years, I use a manual flaming river rack, but I run what many would consider barely streetable trim

Yes, we still use the power steering. we swap the pulley to the V-belt style.
You do not have to go reverse on the water pump, it is a standard rotation.
If you can afford it i would recommend the flaming river manual swap as it works well and the engine compartment looks so much better.
We are looking by the way, for the serpentine setup from a newer truck so we can swap it.
