Hey everyone! I have two questions today:
First, my power steering pump is going out. My mechanic seems to think it's more than likely on the out because of the one-size bigger tires and lift I recently put on. The car has 200k on it so that kind of makes sense. He's afraid however that if we put an OEM one on, it could potentially fail again, and cause it to make the horrendous noise that I'm currently experiencing. Are there any aftermarket pumps people are running that you would all recommend, or are people pretty much running stock pumps?
Second, I also need new headgaskets. For those that rebuild these often, should I keep everything stock or do you recommend using something like ARP studs? OEM gaskets as well? I'm supercharged and plan on adding a smaller pulley and a 7th injector kit if that makes a difference.
Thanks everyone!
