Need help finding powersteering pump!

I need to know a vendor or someplace where I can get a good price on a powersteering pump for a 2000 C5.

It also needs a new pulley so I'm wondering If I can get the pulley attached to the pump from some place or someone!

Can anyone help me here? I don't want to pay an arm and a leg to the dealership..........

Thanks

Try an auto recycler or Fred Beans if you want a new one. The pully cannot be attached or you cannot mount the pump. You mount the pump to alternator bracket then attach the pully

if you buy one of the aftermarket ones offered in the forum store you can attach the pulley to the pump then bolt it into the bracket because the pulley is spoked!

plus it looks cool

Yes, buy a Turn One PS pump. They are great, and I had one on my Firebird with the LS1. They will safety wire the pulley on and they make really nice billet units that have slots so you can get the bolts on and off without removing the pulley. They are also less than new GM pumps.

Who says you need to remove the pulley to R&R the pump? First I've heard of it, was not necessary when I did my cam swap.

Turn One does offer the Corvette Pump and pulley. They are different from the firebird. You can also buy the Turn One Corvette pumps through Lingenfelter if you want.

You don't have to take the pulley off to remove the pump, but it makes it much easier.

FYI - If your pump is not destroyed you can send your pump to Turn One for a reliable rebuild.
