Asking for some inputs on swapping 292 for?

[May70]

I need some input on the following; I live in VA and due to some health issues I basically come to the conclusion that I have to have ac or I cant drive the truck for 5-6 months during the warmer months. I would also like to have power steering. I think it would be foolish to go through all this and not be able to drive the truck half the year here. My truck has a 292 in it and I have seen maybe 3 or 4 pictures of guys who have ac and ps. The setups were highly custom and just looked out of my capabilities. Ive heard talk of brackets available but I can only find some fabricated ones on ebay. In short I have a 292, but I need ac and power steering, what is the easiest way? swap to?

Just to give some back ground I bought a c20 with 292/4 spd back in march. Its pretty rough body wise but from what ive gathered not too far gone. I was hoping to just drive it for maybe a year to decide for sure this is what I wanted. The motor has been giving me a fit and it doesn't look like I will be figuring out any time soon (different thread topic). I could take it to a shop but then that would be $ out for something it is sounding like wont meet my needs. From what ive read on this forum L6 are much more expensive than other options to do much with.

I dont want performance I just want something reliable and I can drive any time of year. I have never swapped anything so I have little idea what all that entails. I would prefer not to sell the truck and find a v8 truck but am not 100% opposed.

Looking for some experience to help me re-evaluate. Thanks
