What do i need to do this? I have still got all of the powersteering rack and pipework that was used on the 1.6 16v sport engine.

I have managed to get a powersteering pump that uses a thin belt, and i think i need to change the alternator and bottom pulley for one that uses power steering?

Is this right or can i still use the powersteering pump that came with the car the one with the thicker belt?

Cheers for any help.
