my power steering is gone, fluid is fine, and belt is fine, but now i have a little "nocking noise" like a pulley is wobbling but its not. anyone ever have a similar problem, or know what could be going on?

Yes I had the same problem. It happened after I did doughnuts.

My PS pump when bad as the shaft that goes from the pulley to the gear sheered in half.

Mine went out 6 days ago when I was racing a z06, it worked fine, i got smoked, but after it was over and i couldn't go faster than 150, i stopped and my power steering didn't work. I was told the same thing, the drive shaft that powers that pump broke in half on the inside. It was under warranty but i had to drive 4 days without steering and it sucks dude. I have 285's in the front, if i where my power steering pump i would go out too....
