I've taken a week off of work and today I hope to actually drive my truck out of the garage for the first time ever under it's own power!!
I've no power steering hoses yet though, so it should be 'interesting' if not heavy to say the least!

My power steering came with my Heidts IFS, my pump came with my GM crate 350. I wonder if the two are compatible.

BIG, I assume you've bled all the air out the system?
That can cause the 'bumping' you describe.

I'm also sure you're aware the F*rd rack and Chevy pump operate at different pressure/flow rates.
Has your pump been adapted to suit?
Just a thought......

You might want to take this one over to the Hi-Po section for more input/advice. (If you haven't already)
