power steering question about crankshaft

Ok, I'm getting parts together to put power steering on my 85.

My current crankshaft pulley doesn't have room for the belt to drive the PS system. Do I need to install a different pulley? (I'm hoping not as that thing was almost impossible to get off the first time...)

Does anyone have a picture of what I need?

Here's a picture from the EPC that makes me think the PS crankshaft pulley bolts on top of the crankshaft pulley:



another picture showing the belt layout:



thanks for the help

And it fits over the crankshaft bolt? (ie, don't need to remove crankshaft bolt to attach PS pulley)

YOu do not have to remove the balancer, or the bolt that secures it to add on the PS pump pulley. Easy and simple bolt on procedure.

Thanks, I may tackle this soon. Would be nice to have PS before putting my 33x12.50's on.

I have (2) NEW stock PS pulleys...and the stock brackets.

Or you can upgrade and get the one on my website.

I have a random box of parts that I think includes everything I need except for a SFA PS box since I can't use my IFS box. Do you have a SFA PS box lying around in your workshop?
