power steering

I did some research and all I could find was that you could use power steering components from a mustang (forgot which year). Are there any other options? I want power steering, but don't want too complicated of a swap. the mustang swap includes quite a bit of work and stuff.

what did you do to lighten up the steering? Are these possible DIY type jobs for a somewhat mechanically competent guy with very competent friends?

No Power Steering, its a drag..

I agree with all those above, power steering should not be needed on a car that weighs little more than 200 pounds...

make sure the tires are good sized, and well inflated.. i try to keep about 36# all around. get it aligned, it shouldn't be too expensive, and try it out. If all else fails, drive it around for a few months. By that time, you will be used to driving it.
