Got a link? or pic?

A pump with attach res will swap in. That bracket was in way of something when I was messing with my bird and I swapped to a 90 mustang pump.

If it ain't broke, it doesn't need fixin'.

I doubt you'll get more than a horse or two from a so-called performance pump. May as well just swap in a manual rack, if you want anything of the sort.

Keep the stocker, unless it's going out, then I'd replace it with another stock pump. Leave the chinese shiznit on the shelf. ;)
