OK to save you some grief just go buy a short water pump. If your brackets are for a short water pump you will never get them to line up with a long water pump. Secondly if you beat the pulley onto the power steering pump go get another pump. Yours is ruined it will shortly self destruct and take the steering box with it. You need to use a power steering pulley installer. A bolt nut and washer will do the trick. Some of the older power steering pumps just simply used a nut on the end of the shaft to hold the pulley in place. The newer units use a press fit pulley and it has to be pressed on. You can either buy a power steering pulley installer like this one Amazon.com: OTC 7005 Power Steering Pump Pulley... . The other option is to use a 3/8's x16 thread bolt about 3 inches long. Use a nut and washer to install the pulley. Screw the bolt down into the shaft with the nut and washer already on the bolt. Once the bolt bottoms put a little lube in the washer and nut where they contact each other. Now turn the nut until the pulley seats down on the pump.
