I want to remove the power steering system but drive the pump the right way

Any solutions?

 

can you not drive it off a step off toothed wheel on the timing belt idler...similar to a dry sump set up ??

 

engine mount in the way

Track Designs do a fitting kit to slot the black top into a Ka etc. That comes with a little conversion kit if you want to run without PAS. Basically has an idler pulley that replaces with PAS pump, might be of use?

Here it is: http://www.trackdesigns.co.uk/zetec-alt.htm

Obviously comes with all the alternator bits, but they might be able to help out.

 

Looks interesting

I hope that idler pully fits the focus RS waterpump

 

austen, do you have a spare st170 water pump housing kicking around?
i have a 107 mile st170 engine thats going in an autograsser and the pipe outlet on the housing is broke.

 

no i dont but the st170 is a regular blacktop pump

 

I've probably got one kicking around - let me know if you're still after one.

 

i will do will. i need to be getting one of them breathers too mate.

 

I called dunnell up about their pully system and told the guy it was for a Focus RS water pump, he then started to argue with me that they were the same until I pointed out the differences, they guy got well shirty, I've spoken with him before and he thinks he knows it all lol

Anyway I'm going to make something up myself that is similar to their setup but better

 

idler pulley on mine.

 

problem solved, made this up tonight, will powder coat it satin black tomorrow

 

that looks tidy , where did you get the engine mount if you dont mind me asking ?

john

 

nice job austen ...all in a days work eh. am down lincoln way tomorrow to pick up an engine

 

Central Florida Motorsport in the USA

 

first thats a gorgeous engine dude.
next need to know a price if you fancy mocking me up a pully bracket?

 

Its alot of hastle to do one

It took me the best part of a day to make mine from scratch TBH and I valve my spare time to much to make stuff for others at the moment

What waterpump are you running?

 

An alternative is keep the power steering bracket and use a mazda pulley(part number somewhere) and an 1134 6pk belt.
All bolts straight up.
