Power Steering Conversion
Hi, I have a '57 Chevy 3100 with a 235--six. I converted to an alternator and added A/C. I now want to convert to power steering but the problem is all conversion kits put the pump where the A/C compressor is located. Has anyone out there added both A/C and PS? Is there any chance someone sells the bracket or do I have to have one made? Thanks Paul

Re: Power Steering Conversion
post a photo of what you have so we can see where one will fit. Probably will be more cost effective to make one yourself. I have $20 in materials in all the brackets for my engine and the time to make them was way less than waiting for someone to ship them to me. Patrick

Re: Power Steering Conversion
Patrick, Here are some pics of the area the pump will have to go. There appears to be enough room for the pump. Your thoughts. Paul
