As the Q says ,I've got a holden pump but its noisy and not real good room wise have any of ya's used the lux pump as they are smaller BTW i'm also going to X over from normal P/steer any ideas.I'm sure the lux pump wil be fine just the mounting pump will be the issue. :idea: :roll: :)

The V8 holden runs the same pump with a different pully. They are both Saginaw pumps.

XF pump works a treat!! must be different valving.
Will bolt up to the holden brackets no problem.

G'day Webbie,
I kept my power steering pump off the diesel and made my own brackets to suit the V8. I have got only 1 belt that runs the water pump, alternator & power steering pump and it all works a treat.
The Surf pump is very compact and doesn't struggle at all with big tires.
