Pacer rack in 56 F100-what PSI does it run?

I bought a 56 F100 that has a Pacer IFS and rack installed. Does anyone know what PSI the rack is supposed to operate at? I've heard that they all seem to leak, but it has the feel of being overpressurized (like a Mustang with a GM pump), since it responds very quickly. Thanks, Rob

 

can't help you with the exact pressure but I am running a 77 pacer rack in my truck and 69 ford pump on my 302 works the rack perfectly.

 

I have a pacer in my 48 Ford with a chevy pump...I cut the pressure all I could with shims...it sure helped..I think I got the shims from Bill's...all they are is pop rivit washers..

 

Hello ,I have pacer in a 56 also, I chagned the pressure vale in the pump. I purchased a name brand and then saw that Speedway has one for around $20.00. It made a big difference . Mine also steered to quick works great now. Gary

 

Thanks for the help. if the Ford pump makes it feel right, I probably need to reduce the pressure. My pump is at about 900 and the Fords seem to be closer to 500. I'll check the Speedway valve. Thanks, Rob
