I found some damage and my power steering pump's pulley. Borgeson makes a new pump, it's there 800338. Only thing is, it's a 6 3/4" pulley and the one I have is around 4 5/8". Does anyone think this would this cause any problems besides maybe a bigger belt?

I bought a Borgeson kit from Bergman. Happy with it. Only thing I ran into on my 65 was my original box to k frame bolts were smaller diameter than the holes in the box. I made sleeves for the bolts and went with it.

The trip to Van Nuys few weeks back. I had Rich pull on the bracket as I tightened it. The belt was tight. Either the pump is not up to the task, the belt slips despite adequate tension or the Borgeson unit just needs greater pressure. I don’t know where the problem lies just yet.

Thanks for the response. So I went ahead and installed the remanufactured box from Autozone. But after looking at it I'm fairly confident it's a Lares brand box. It appears to be doing alright. I've not driven it much. The only problem I had was I heated the original crush washer to restore its...

Is the box truly "On Center" The input shaft on the Borgeson doesn't have a locator so it can be assembled in any position... If you are one spline off you'll have slop it what you are using as "On Center" The reason for this is the true center is ground to a tighter tolerance that the rest...

What part of the box is welded? I don't have pics of mine, but I just purchased/installed it last month.

Well a Borgeson it is

I put that pump in my car. I had to chip away at a bump on the block that was threaded. I really still need to take a little more off. The return line robs up against that spot when tightening or loosening the pump. The original pump had a damaged pulley and was making noise. The new pump is...

Looks like this OER. I'd contact them for adjustment instructions. https://www.jegs.com/i/OER/691/MN6542/10002/-1 Also... https://www.classicindustries.com/product/mn6542.html

If you decide to go Borgeson, get it from Peter at BAC.

I've heard good things about the borgeson conversion.

thanks for this! My box was installed not too many miles ago and I'm running a new (rebuilt) Saginaw pump. Less than 300 mi so far, but no noise or issues. I'll keep this info about the tuned Bergman box on file as a backup in case any future issues occur.

She bought the pump, not the box.

Borgeson is also a bolt in if you order from Bergman... i put it on my car just before winter and it is a great setup. didn't have to modify anything

I did it an Ebody, 71 Cuda, with stock ci manifolds 21/2" exhaust and dropped it from the bottom without moving any thing. I did replace it with a Borgeson box.

Borgeson is complex. You might consider the recently marketed Lares 2.5 fast box. I put it in my 63 Fury and like it so far. The return connection, and maybe the input threads are different from stock. Lares Catalog - Lares Corporation

...it might as well look into upgrading. Not for any other reason than I’ve read posts about it and people say it’s good. Can I just buy the Borgeson steering box and the Bergman no-cut coupler and make it work- or is it not that simple, do I have to buy the whole kit. I don’t race or often...

I did reach out Borgeson about the larger pulley. They told me I will be fine as the pump was designed to give the right amount of pressure with the larger pulley.

Yesterday while while I was torquing down my Borgeson Steering box one of the bolts felt funny (like it was trying to give out) and another broke the hardened washer ( further inspection revealed the washer had a crack before I broke it). I was torquing the bolts using the instructions provided...
