Default Power steering pump
Is the stock mercruiser steering pump the same pressure as a stock GM steering pump. Reason is I'm thinking of running a late model small alum. pump off of a GM .Reason is it's small and looks a lot cleaner. Thanks JOHN

Mine was. I had to change the housing for routing purposes but the internals were the same.

I don't think there will much diff, but you can change the pressure easily by swaping out the reg valve and spring from the big nut where the pressure hose attaches..no big deal to switch...Rob
