???68 K10 Power Steering Gear Box?????

So I have a 68 K10 the owner before me put in a 350 with power steering. The gear box will not sit flush to the frame cause the frame is flat not notched. I cant find any gear box for it other than the manual that will fit flush. I do not want to go back to manual gear box I use it off road with 36x13.50 Iroks. What do i need to do?? Here's a few pictures of her.

I've seen a post or two on this issue and seems the preferred route is to heat the frame and make a dimpled area to allow the box to fit correctly.
