You can use any chevy pump. One thing to keep in mind is that the pressure rating of the chevy pump is higher than the pressure rating of the Ford rack. You may decide to use a pressure regulator to tune in the "feel".

Re: Porter Rack n Pinion Steering

Not trying to high jack....

But what about guys running an LS series motor? Can we use the newer factory hoses if using the truck accessory brackets?

You can use the newer pump with our hose kit. You might be able to have new ends crimped on the factory hoses to save a little cash.
