Best PS pump for 5.3 lq9

I am on my second Krc power steering pump. I'm not sure if it's the pulley size or wrong inlet size. Can anyone tell me what would be best for a truck 5.3 with a gm rack and pinion? Thanks !

You are right I don't know why I always get mixed up. The problem I think is because of my pulley size the pump runs to fast or to slow and it causes them to go out. I have a r&p and I want to keep the reservoir off to the side. I bought my pumps and pulley separate. I just want to find one that is together with pulley ready to go fo a gm? Thanks!!!!
