No Limit rack

I'm at the point that I need to start to plumb my no limit rack. I know a lot of guys have done this conversion with success. I need to know what power steering pump to use. No Limit does not give any recommendations so i'm in the dark. Any help is appreciated!

Probably if you search "power steering", here on the forum you will find what you want and more.

I'm running a 351C. There are a lot of threads on the rack but no one mentions what pump to use

I would be inclined to run the Ford pump that bolts to your Cleveland. I've got a Ford pump powering a Camaro box and a Chev pump on a Ford rack. They both work fine. Did No Limit tell you what type of rack it is?

I'm not sure, but I don't think it matters what pump you use as long as it fits the engine and you have no leaks

pump

i believe the rack is similar to the later model thunderbird, the information should be in the paper work you got with the front end

It says on the last page of the instructions that any pump is OK to use.

I decided to go with a new ford pump that I got for cheap since it is a ford rack and I fabricated brackets. I should have it up and going this weekend I'll post how it turned out and post some pics in my gallery on the completed project. Thanks for everyone's help.

Good looking install. Any oil pan clearance issues?

Does the electric motor run the water pump? Looks like you have a pusher radiator fan.
