    About four years ago I was inspired to resto-mod my '73 after reading what others had posted. I ended up with '81 intake/exhaust manifolds, MC2100 carb, and HEI distributor. Fantabulous upgrades!
    So now I'm ready to upgrade to power steering and move the alternator. I think I've got to use an '81 258 as a donor, so that the pump will bolt to the aluminum intake and motor.

    So I found a potential donor on ebay, guy has a pump and high pressure hose from an '82 258 listed. I email to see if all the other parts: water pump, double pulley, harmonic balancer, timing cover, including bolts can be provided. Response was," As it turns out, I have all of the parts you want. I'm not sure if you need the alternator bracket, but I have that also, but no bolts for the alt. Otherwise, I have it all. See the attached photo and note that 1) the engine is upside down on the stand (removing the oil pan next) and 2) the pulley from the water pump is on the ground near the fan. If you want the PS pump, you will have to win the auction. For the other parts, I will sell them to you no problem. You have to give me an idea how much you are willing to pay for all the parts."

    I have no idea what to offer, but junk yards usually try to get you for each individual part. Where do I start?

    I'm supposed to pick up a power steering pump Thursday off of an 80's 258, if you want it, you can have it for shipping cost. Just let me know.
