Highflow Holden V8 PS pump

Post by DIRTY ROCK STAR »

Has anyone had one of these pumps rebuilt and highflowed? and who did you use? cost?

I have a fairly stuffed one i need rebuilt and might as well get it hiflowed and flowing harder at lower revs.
I have heard just pack some washers in the fitting at the back of the pump, but there must be mor to it....

cheers

it doesnt work? will turn left abit but not right.
it came with the motor so it was likely shagged before i bought it.

sounds more like a probelm with steering box control valving. The pump just pumps, it doesnt know if you are turning left or right

i to have recently come to the conclusion that holden pumps are shit in a 4wd with flat tyres..!
i did a holden 5.0l into a gu and used the pump that come with the engine without rebuilding it..bad move!!

i exchanged the old pump for a rebuilt one and all seemed good untill i let my tyres down and drove on tar, i couldnt even turn the bloody wheels while stopped and there only 33/12.5's

so next spare wknd i will be making up a bracket to suit my old gu power steering pump to the holden engine!

dont bother with the washer idear, been warned it does not work all that well and is a short term fix!

what truck is it in by the way??
if its a gu just make a bracket to fit a gu pump!

I just made a bracket to re-use the Toyota pump when I did my engine swap.
I figured if it was working fine I'd just leave it all Toyota.

Its the same for all saginal (sp) pump's.

I wouldn't worry about changing the spring tho.
Mick Garner has done all mine and they've been great. The last one lasted about 10mins, Thats what happens when you pay $10 for a pump :D

Seriosuly Mick's work is the goods!
