If anyone has any ideas I’m open to them… for now I’m thinking that I’ll unbolt the pump & remove this blanking plate (the one I’m touching in the pic below) & have a new one made up that extends out either side to hold both the Alt & the power steering pump
well maybe talk with member cs123 about his zg fairlane build http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11302015 in post 589 http://www.fordforums.com.au/showpos...&postcount=589 of this great build thread he went electric for power steering , utilising a Mercedes A Class electric pump
