Hey guys - I need a new power steering pump for my boat. The original OMC part number is 983791 and the new Volvo number is 3888323. the dealer wants $220 for this pump. Does anyone know if there is an automotive version that I can use?

Thanks

If its a 5.0 chevy it is the same as a chevy truck Power steering pump, my GM Omc 4.3 V-6 is the same ...

It's a Ford. The pump does appear to be a GM pump though. I bought a GM metric pump from Napa but the flare nut doesn't fit. The original pump was also metric so I'm a little confused.

Just transfer all the guts of the new one into your original OMC casing, I've never done this myself but I have rebuilt p/s pumps with new bearings and seals.
