Hi

is there anyone on here who has done a h2b in a civic ek and still running power steering?

Is it possible, i know clearance is tight but can i bang the frame rail and get it to clear with the oem crank pulley?

Also how much diffrence power wise will it make with power steering removed, or when im going on the strip can i just remove the belt or is this not possible?

Thanks

 

There is no room for the power steering section to remain on the crank pulley. People with dc and ek chassis' have to shave the powersteering groove off the pulley. As a matter of fact, any h2b period must have that shaved off.

You might be able to cut the framerail and weld a plate inside of it, giving you room to leave that groove on.

Other than that, another option would be to run it off the same belt as the alternator. But that would require a custom powersteering pump bracket. It would need to be moved inwards toward the headers about an inch or so.
