Powersteering Pump Pulleys
Maybe the wrong place for this, but is there a source for new PS pulleys for a 71 smallblock? Ecklers lists both with and w/o AC but none on hand. Chebby Store says no longer available.

Re: Powersteering Pump Pulleys (Muffin)
The non AC pulley is discontinued by GM. I have a NOS one but, it's not cheap, I would need around $95 (+ shipping) for it. The pulley is new in the box. you may be able to find one at a wrecking yard as they were on many Vettes in this era. You need the 3 spoked cast iron pulley for non-AC small blocks (it is a "deep groove" design as used on LT-1 Vettes.) Make sure your present power steering pump has a nut at the end of the shaft as this is the only style pump this pulley will work on!

Re: Powersteering Pump Pulleys (Solid LT1)
Look around the junkyards. If your are not concerned with"correctness" I think you will be able to find a suitable replacement. You may have to buy a whole junk pump with pulley, but it will be less than a new one for sure.

I looked all over for a 68 BB PS pulley and finally found one at Paragon. Not cheap but delivered to me in 2 days and a very nice part.
