Re: Easiest power sterring conversion

Not knowing what the PO has done to your truck regarding the engine installation, I can not guarantee no headaches, but converting to power steering really isn't complicated. The one part that could be an issue, is what water pump was used on the 350 will determine what pump, brackets and pulleys you will need. Pics of what you have will be a help.

Re: Easiest power sterring conversion

Hey captainfab, here are some pics. The engine is a 350 from a 71 impala and I can see 2 available spots for belts I'm guessing for the power steering and air conditioning.

Re: Easiest power sterring conversion

Looks like long pump, should be easy 70's conversion. FYI, there's a factory setup for sale in the boise craigslist. I prefer the conversion, but a purist could use it, $150.
