Ideal steering box - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I had deduced from research that the '76-'80 power steering gear boxes where the best bolt in replacements for our trucks. (variable, 3 1/2 lock to lock, not metric hoses) BUT, I've heard rumor two separate places about using a late 70's Firebird steering box!?! Can anyone clear this up for me? I thought cars were mount inside the frame and trucks outside the frame. I just want to know what bolt in, quickest ratio, junkyard find, power steering box to look for? I know anything will be better than my MANUAL STEERING that I have now.
