I was just thinking about this...
Has anyone looked at Astra Diesel Alternators? They run a P/S pump on the back and look as though they'd mount up to a CVH bracket easy enough. Just need a power rack then!

Hydraulic faps up the feel too. With electric you can switch it off for track work if you want.

Oh, if anyone has a stock column and shaft lying around drop me a PM, need one to butcher the Corsa unit into!
