Power steering pulley question

i need to replace my power steering pump (SAGINAW) and pulley as it is bent really bad.  Does it matter if I buy the slotted key style one over the pressed one?  I like the idea of the slotted key as it will be easier and I wont have to mess with another tool to buy to press?  thoughts or comments are appreciated.  Best and cheapest place to buy these items?  i see some %30 percent off vouchers for some places but i feel the prices area marked up %40 percent anyways
It doesn't matter how your car looks, as long as you have one.

you have to have key way pump to match the key way pulley, they are not interchangeable with a press on type

i understand that they are not interchangeable, i was just wondering if there is a preference for any reason?  pressed vs keyed

the Key way one is better for high rpm use, & ease of installation .
