Which pump for 72 small sector 318

[Boduke]

Here goes.
I want to convert from manual to power steering
I decided to cobble together factory stuff rather than opt for a full kit
Car is Stock 72 318
Stock exhaust manifoleds
Stock manual 24:1 alum box right now with small sector
Aluminim water pump.
I got the column length covered
Im going with a rock auto box from bbb.
My question is
There are multiple pumps.
Trw/federal/saginaw
Does it matter what pump i use or does the pump only relate to the brackets and line configurations.
Thanks

Pump, pulleys and brackets are specific and all work together along with hoses.

I would say the Saginaw setup would be the easiest to find since that was used on the later models.

word! Rock sells saginaw and federal. Is trw just another word for saginaw or is trw its own thing?

Yes - “word out.”

Word out works.. but the preferred nomenclature would be word-up ..bro..

Federal and TRW are different but close to the same. I have a TRW in my 68 Dart. I think they use the same bracket but not 100% sure.
Saginaw uses different brackets that Federal or TRW.

I tried the Thompson first, but it couldn't keep up to my driving style.
Next up was the Saginaw, which was the winner.
