I am trying to figure out powersteering myself for my K20. If your truck still has the original closed knuckle front axle, it is a bit of a challenge as the steering arm on the knuckle is not really made for power steering. Additionally, it is doubtful (although no impossible) that your frame doesn't have the "dimple" for the powersteering gear box to bolt up flush to the frame. There are ways to do it....and I am doing my research on how to integrate it into my truck. Where there is a will, there is a way! :-)

I believe that none of the 67's had that dimple: it was a 1968 thing with the introduction of the big block.

I'd love to find a power steering solution for it because I kind of like the 292. I am not scared of a work-out but I think that manual steering on this particular rig would get old really fast.
