2 vs 3 v- groove power steering pulley

[Sgt Gus]

So the '87 3/4 ton, 454 has a 3-groove power steering pulley. NOT coming off.
Will a 2-groove for the saginaw work and line up? The back v-grooves are approx 5.75" diameter. BThis truck was not using the front smaller v-groove 5.125 diameter?
Press on, remote reservoir, new one on the way.
Now I need to order a pulley.

Do you have a pulley puller tool ?

Which groove of the crank pulley was used ?

Rockauto shows a single and double groove pulley for your truck.

I would wait for the new pump, test mount and look how everything lines up.

Yes on puller, used PB and even torch. Tore the lip, once it started, no hope, but I tried.
Yes! Rockauto has. Pump was a 12541, but Lares didn't show a pulley on their website. But there it be on Rockauto. Called them just to verify. #159 They are very (Lares) helpful.
Thanks for your help! So much time researching crap...

Ours was 3-groove but front smaller not used. So using the 2 v-groove pulley.
