Coming from the construction industry we are familiar with engineering as we go. large projects don't have the engineering completed before we start the job.
As I build the Transcona Cougar I also occasionally run into these situations.
My problem is the use of a 1995 ford truck power steering pump with a C-6 corvette rack and pinion setup. 
While my inquiry is specific there are probably those of us who have used the OLD style pumps with modern racks. What did you do to change pressures and tailor them to an R+P setup? If you have specifically used a ford pump all the better.

Dont change anything unless you have issues.  Best thing to do is just run it as is and see if you have problems.  It will be obvious, youl have a lack of power assist at low rpm.  If thats the case you can change the pressure control valve to up the pressure.  Ive never done it myself but have had it done when needed.  Any rebuilding shop should be able to help you with that
