Electric Power Steering Pump - 1967 Barracuda

@jim, nice score. I was thinking the extended reservoir in the model you have could poke up through the inner fender if one was brave enough to put a hole saw to it and trim with a grommet around it.

With regards to the different similar pumps. I have read anecdotal reports that some do not work in the "limp" mode that I am running mine in, but I have seen no confirmed reports of this. I also see people talking about the TRW units, I do not know much about them except they appear to look similar, so I assume these are all the same OEM but with different firmwares on them, ZF also seems to list a similar looking unit. There are a lot of people who have documented these pumps, here is a good place for people to dig into it if they want.

With regards to feel / usage. I never drove the care with power steering before, it had a power box and no pump when I got it. It was sloppy due to the lack of assist and very hard to turn / park with the sticky 245 17's on the front. With the pump running it feels like other Mopars of a similar era I think, pinky level force required to turn the wheel. If you are turning really fast into a parking spot you can overrun the pump's flow and loose the assist. but for 95% of driving it feels seamless. I have not tried to autocross it (yet).

For the hydraulic hose, I just measured and crossed my fingers and bought a prefabbed hose from McMaster, it was P/N 9459K241, 3 ft hose. It worked out perfect. But nothing as clean as what Dodgy is doing.

@Dodgy,very clean setup! What is with the pot box with the relays, couple 7 segments and button? Looks intriguing.
