Default B18B->EK, which PS Pump?

Just finished swapping in a B18b into my EK and was just curious what power steering pump people have been using. I tried the P72, but it turns out the hole in which you plug the hose from the rack to the pump doesn't fit. So right now i've ghetto rigged my sohc pump for temporary use. The problem with that is, the bottom bracket doesn't come high enough to mount the pump properly so it's only on by one bolt. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think a pump and hose from a 99-00 si will work with the p72 pump brackets. Also, there are two different p72 pumps, the later ones have a larger opening where the hose connects. I think the later one is from 98 up.

I tried the P72 brackets and they didn't work(the bracket kept hitting the timing belt cover I believe). I do have the LS brackets and if the hose connect opening is larger on the 98+ pumps then that pretty much solves my problem. The pump I have is from a 95 so I guess I gotto look for a 98 and up pump. Thanks for your help.
