Help me diagnose this power steering issue.

Hi all. I'm running an lsx using the GM type 2 power steering pump. My problem is that I keep killing pumps. At the last event I burnt out my pump on the first turn. I've killed a brand new pump every event since I've done the swap. I'm using synthetic fluid and bleed the system religiously. I can drive around on the road okay, but it seems to be when I'm at high rpms and high angle that the pump fails. I jave a power steering cooler. Everything I'm reading points to the pump, but I'm starting to doubt that. My rack isn't leaking visibly, but I'm starting to suspect it might be the culprit. Any ideas?
