Mustang II PS rack, Saginaw PS pump - modified with both flow (2 GPM - many available) and pressure reduction (Borgeson 899001 kit). If I did it again I'd probably use an adjustable valve like the Heidts Adjustable Power Steering Valve (PS-101). That way you could dial it up for autocross and dial it back down for regular use.

The pump is mounted with a billet aluminum bracket from CVF Racing, and the PS pump pulley is from CVF as well. The crank pulley is from March Performance (it was on the car when I bought it in 2014).

Road feel is okay, not great. Self-centering is not great either, but I haven't taken it back in to have the caster increased - it's still set low for manual steering and needs to be dialed up for the PS.

BTW, I don't make a habit of letting go of the steering wheel!
