My 67 Convertible EFI Restomod project

The pump must be putting out too much pressure surely, 2 in a row is a bit sus?
Very frustrating for you.

On that EFI it should be a R&P pump unless the donor car had a box? If so, then it's the pump.

Yeah the pump is brand new, I replaced it when i put the new rack in. Its the original type pump for a 93 Ford V8, same pump that was on the mustangs of that era. From all accounts the pump should be fine pressure wise as its built for a rack system. I have got a heidts power steering valve here, thatll go in next. But at this stage my stang can go and get fucked.

Tim, don't be too hard on the Stang Buddy, she can't help it! She's American..

Im back, after a few health issues, im finally able to get to work in the shed. First order of business rip the RRS rack out and send it back for repair or replacement. I reckon this is the 500th time the racks been removed. My apprentice helped me get the stang on the hoist


I picked up a couple of manual drag links and a steering box out of a 68 but I think Im going to try the RRS rack again with the Heidts pwr steering valve. The good folks at RRS tell me that a valve is not needed to lower the pump pressure but im putting it in, The Ford pump obviously has too much pressure for the rack. Hopefully I can get a new rack from RRS asap. Ive lined up a fella to fit the vert top for me, so I hope I can start moving in the right direction and get this on the road.
