taurion Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Does anyone know of a pas pump more compact than the Hobourn Eaton fitted to RRC 86-92. I am short of space at the front of the engine. There is only about 10mm clearance around the pump between the timing case, chassis and steering box. Machining a new mounting and pulley modifications are not a problem.

Arjan Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Bit lost here as why there is a problem.. However, there is a number of routes to go - combined alternator / steeringpump units, electric pumps, etc. Wallet content, legal restrictions and creativity basically decide what route to take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taurion Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 With a long straight 6 in the engine compartment made for a V8 or a 4 cyl the crank pulley is set in a recess in the front cross member. As a result there is no space to put the accessories between the engine and chassis and the beltdrives have to come upwards to clear the recess in the chassis.
