'94 parts on a '67?
I got a '94 Chevy parts truck that I am planning on using the engine and 5 speed out of and swapping them into my 67. What other parts might be interchangeable with a little work? '67 now doesnt have power steering. Would the power steering box work? Can I use the front discs and braking parts? Both trucks are 6 lug. Are these even options to be considering or am I just having brain farts? Any advice or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks. The '94 was my brother-in-law's who got killed in it days before his 24 birthday. I thought the more parts that could be put on my project would make me feel that he could be a part of it. Maybe I'm too sentimental.

I'm guessing by the amount of replies this must be a dumb idea. I was just thinking something might change over.

People probably need more info.
Is your 67 or 94 2wd or 4wd? Is your 67 a manual now? If so is it column or floor? In my opinion anything can be done with some work and creativity, but I do not know exactly how much work will be involved. Some things that come to mind are will the top shifter of the donor trans line up with where you need it to be in the 67? Are you going to keep the hydraulic clutch setup from the 94? I have read some post on here that say that you need to set the motor back a few inches. There have been several people that have swapped in a newer front but it will most likely be wider than the stock front end. Also I am kinda thinking that the 94 has a torsion bar setup. It might be a lot of work, but if it means something to you then that is all that matters.

Also the power steering pump will work, but the box won't...it's on the opposite side of the frame as compared to the original position of the 67. It will also have flared style fittings and the 94 came with O-ring fittings.
