Why Choose the Mastodon GM Saginaw Power Steering Pump?
This power steering pump is an excellent choice for you because it delivers on both form and function. Many classic pumps have a dull, unfinished appearance. They often deliver weak fluid pressure. By choosing this chrome Mastodon unit, you instantly upgrade your engine's aesthetic. Furthermore, the high-output internals guarantee that your steering will be smooth and responsive. This is critical for you if you have modern tires or a modified steering box. Ultimately, this is a vital upgrade that ensures your vehicle handles with modern ease while providing a classic, highly polished look.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this fit my specific GM engine (SBC/BBC)?
This pump fits most SBC and BBC engines. It is important to note that it requires a separate GM Saginaw-style mounting bracket and pulley. You must reuse your existing hardware or purchase new components. - Does it come with a reservoir and pulley?
No, this pump is typically sold without a reservoir or pulley. You can purchase a matching chrome reservoir and the correct pulley separately. You will need to press the pulley onto the shaft. - Why is the chrome finish better than paint?
Chrome is an extremely durable plating. It resists chipping and fading far better than high-heat paint. Furthermore, a chrome finish provides a deeper, mirror-like shine that truly stands out in your engine bay. - What fluid should I use?
You should use high-quality power steering fluid or automatic transmission fluid (ATF), depending on your steering system's requirements. We recommend that you consult your vehicle or steering system manual. - What is the benefit of a "high-output" pump?
A high-output pump delivers more consistent fluid pressure. This is beneficial at low engine RPM (like parking) or when you have oversized tires. It ensures effortless power assist whenever you need it. - Is this a brand new unit or a rebuilt one?
This is a brand-new unit. We build it with all new components. This gives you a longer, more reliable service life than a remanufactured pump. - Do you offer nationwide shipping?
Yes, we offer fast and reliable nationwide shipping across South Africa. You can order from anywhere in the country. All orders are processed and shipped from our location in Alberton.
