    It is pretty cheap to change the Chevy pump pressure to see if it corrects the problem.
    The chevy pumps of the 70's-80's put out around 1200 psi. The Ford pumps around 800 psi,thus you will fill the difference.
    It is a common proplem with the Must II IFS to have too much boost & get
    oversteer.
    Do a search on Chevy pump pressure problem......

    It is also important that you have the correct caster as mentioned above.

    This is good info. I was about to buy a Heidt's regulator instead of the Borgeson's regulator kit. Does anyone have some pics on the adding washers to the pump regulator. It seems to be backward to me, doesn't adding washers increase the pressure? Please explain so I get my thinking correct.

    Thanks
