If you have a 2-pipe pump, I pretty sure it won't work with the road-speed-sensitive 3-pipe system. Can you fit the FD pulley to the FC pump?

from what i've read, no. also my car never came with ps, and since the FD pump is 2 lines, it doesnt require the PS ecu, and that leaves out one less thing to **** with. I've heard of FD guys swapping FC racks in there cars, does neone kno if I can swap an FD rack into an FC?
