It's harder to find p/s stuff for the short water pump setup. It's out there, just harder to find. I switched to a long water pump setup and used a 70's style p/s pump. The same alt can be used with that setup. Since the 400 has accessory hole in the heads, this should be an easy swap... Good luck...
