Nice work. Do you notice a difference in steering feel with the new pump? Is it sized to match the pressure of the factory pump?

Very cool. I didn't realize until the last picture you were running an SBC. I glanced through your blog but didn't see any pics on the conversion. Did you do it yuorself or was it a previous owner.

I had thought about going down that road if my 16V ever crapped out, but was pretty intimidated when I read some of the issues Black Forest had doing an LT-1 install using some Renegade Hybrids stuff that didn't quite fit. I'd love to see one in peson that was sorted out.

Yeah, I just read through the rest of your blog posts. Cool stuff! I guess I missed your prior posts on this project.

The PO did the conversion but I had the motor rebuilt after it was completed. The pump feels a bit higher pressure than the stock one but the steering feel has not changed drastically. KRC sells individual flow valves so if need be I can change mine out for a smaller one.
