Very Cheap Crown P/S pump? 700 1990

OK, so I had a VERY bad P/S mount and it rode all lopsided, and I think it damaged my power steering pump. When I first start it, especially if the engine is warm, the p/s groans. Had to replace the fluid from dry when I replaced the mount, had already changed the fluid several times, and it was riding on a 10-15 degree deviation from in line with the water pump by the time I replaced it.

I'm planning on replacing it now rather than waiting until I'm back in school and living away from home.

Does anyone have any info on Crown vs. Scantech? I've heard bad things about scantech, and I believe some of them, but somehow, Crown is about $75 cheaper.
IT makes me suspicious and I was wondering who has tried them and with what results. Also if it comes with a pulley or not.
