This post never ceases to amaze me!
What is the PSI rating of that KRC pump?
It is a 7.2cc pump that uses -6 changeable control valves (9 optional sizes) with a max speed of 9,000 RPM. The pump also comes with the standard 1080 psi relieve spool, which should work well with the 2.62 pinion ratio and medium valved servo on the Woodward rack. A 1450 psi relief is also available, but not necessary since the steering arms on the C5 spindles are a decent length. Also, the current valve flows 2.11 GPM. We can switch to a different size to reduce assist, increase feel, etc.
Long story short, the KRC pump can be fine tuned for our application. The pulley can be easily removed as well, since it uses a 17 spline hub instead of the standard pressed-on style pulley.
Got back late last night from the Columbus Goodguys show - what a great time. One of my favorites is a twin-procharged 6.1 HEMI Cuda. I think it should have made the top five for street machine of the year, but what do I know....
Congrats to Mike & Jim Ring for another job well done! They definitely outdid themselves with another beautiful build.
