These engines come factory with 355 hp but all 5,3s after 2014 dont have power steering, they have electric steering.

Bummer. I think your point here is that you are going to have to come up with a drive system to run your PS pump, or switch to electric. Both are expensive in aftermarket.

Don't the HD trucks (2500 and up) still run hydraulic? Maybe there is a factory piece you can find.
