I am trying to figure out how to run a remote PS pump/reservoir on my 73 Cuda (416 CI, EFI 6 pac) and wondering if anyone out there is or has done it. There appears to be several options running from the Type II GM style to the late model Mopar versions. However I do not know the line pressure I should be looking for and subsequently would will work. I want to run one to clean up the left side of the motor and since this is a bit of a road race car, I think it will give me some options; not to mention I am not fond of the factory PS pumps, expecially thier pulleys. I can fabricate the brackets once I have a pumpt to work with.

thanks, I remember reading about that now that you mention it. You are right, there are lots of pumps. I just needed a place to start (now I have one).

Some of the mid-late 80s HD trucks with the 360-4v also had a remote resevoir. They had two smog pumps so they had to have the remote resevoir. The pump bolts to a stock bracket IIRC and you would have to find a place to mount the resevoir.

The stock mopar pumps like the one pictured above is a POS, we run them on jeeps and go through them like crazy. Get a good saginaw with brackets and never worry about them again. Tim
I thought this was a Sagninaw pump pictured below and in AndyF's post? That pump is the same style as the ones we run on our circle track cars.

This is more like what I would buy, need a pulley though and stock brackes from small block fit. TIm

That looks like the oval canned Saginaw pumps use off and on in late 60's all the way up to the 80's.
The Federal and Eaton round filler neck pump, IMHO, blow.

What AN attachments are you using 1. to get the high pressure side from the pump to the sector 2. the fittings on the sector for the high pressure and low pressure sides side

I'm not trying to be difficult, it comes naturally....

Never mind.
Found some here. Does this look right?

No. That's just a right angle version of what you probably allread have on your car. It's just compression fitting, not AN.
You need a fitting that goes from that thread in the box with a o-ring to AN. I thought there was something out there. Check/call http://www.ormebrothers.com/
DO NOT buy anything from Jims Auto Parts. They have a horrible reputation in this industry for service and price. For example that Saginaw power steering pump rebuild kit Jims lists for $89 can be bought at Rock Auto or any local parts store for under $20.
