When I go down this road again I will put a block off plate on the gear housing and belt drive a common ps pump and go hydraboost. The marriage vacuum pump and ps pump can be a real pain if you get a bad shaft and seal on the ps pump. As long as you have the gear housing off make sure you put a fix on the killer dowl pin or it may destroy the whole motor. I was lucky, dowl pin fell down and instead of going between the two gears it got caught between the gear and tin cover, when I pulled the timing cover it looked like you had shot it with a 45 ACP from the inside out. Could'nt figure out where all the oil was coming from.
