Default Power Steering Shudder

I HAVE MOSTLY STOCK/ORIGINAL 70, WITH THE FRONT END ON JACK STANDS AND ENGINE OFF I CAN SMOOTHLY TURN THE WHEELS LEFT TO RIGHT. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING THE WHEELS SHUDDER A-BIT WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. IS THIS NORMAL OR CAN AIR IN THE SYSTEM CAUSE THIS.ALSO CAN AIR IN THE SYSTEM CAUSE THE CAR TO PULL TO ONE SIDE DURING BRAKING (BRAKES SEEM TO BE WORKING FINE) THANKS IN ADVANCE

Yes, air will make it shudder, till the air is gone...a few miles or so. No, the p/s system can't make the car pull to one side when braking. Only the brakes and/or suspension can do that.
