1978: Ford changed the P/S pump on everything except Passenger Cars with Hydro-Boost & Econolines.
This pump has a plastic reservoir, it's a different shape than the steel reservoir pump. The P/S pressure connects to this pump w/a qwik connect fitting.
If your truck has a 360/390, its P/S pump mounting brackets will not fit this plastic reservoir pump.

I like the Ford pump whine. I remember it from the time I was 10 years old in brand new pickups. They work fine and it's part of the nostalgia.
if I want a pickup that's modern I'll drive my new Super Duty. but hey I Iike chevy's too I have a beautiful '77 K10 SWB with a saginaw pump on it so it's all good.

I have a Saginaw pump on my '75 F250. The pump came oe on a 76 LTD with a 460 and hydroboost brakes. I think ford used Saginaw pumps when more psi was needed for HD vehicles.
