Which Power Steering Pump should I use with a John Starks Rack Conversion?

[KYBlueOval]

I'm about ready to install my engine ( 5.8 /351 Windsor ) and transmission in the chassis,of my Ranchero, and would like to hear from others, on the Forum, that have this, John Starks rack conversion, on which Power Steering pump they recommend, and why.

I've got to buy a pump, so I'd like to purchase the best pump for use with this rack. Fabricating a bracket ,if necessary, is no problem. If it makes a difference.........I'm using the factory serpentine belt system.
Thanks
John

The cooling fan on many serpantine systems turn the opposite direction so be sure you use the correct fan blade  Ask me how I know.

Check out my thread on too much pressure. 

I would run the 5.0 mustang pump for the same year as it is used on a rack already.

I've got his setup and I've always run the stock Ford pump on the '95  4.6. I am on my 4th rack now, for what that's worth. The first one blew out the seals very early, just a few hundred miles, but was probably on the car 4 years give or take before it got driven. The next two were leaky seals, and the recent last one for issues I discussed in the morning coffee thread. I've chaulked it up to poor rubber /rebuild quality in the rack components.

Abe..........Thanks for the advise, good to know..........I'll be using an electric fan, so I should not have such an issue.
Thanks
