Default LS1 power steering question
Just bought this LS1 and the previous owner was not running power steering, what do I need to get it back to the factory setup ? It's going in a 73 camaro if that matters.

Looks like you just need some OEM F-body parts...

yeah, you appear to be missing the F-body PS pump and brackets. Get those, and you should be ready to rock.

Thanks for the help fellas I googled some pics of f body motors and it looks like I'm missing the alt bracket also but it's mounted on the block pretty solid. Should I get another one or just leave it alone ?

you may be able to score it pretty cheap at a bone yard, if so, I definitely get one. Maybe the previous owner has a box of parts laying around? can't hurt to ask.

You need the pump, pulley, bracket, bigger belt, new lines, and a rack n pinion. Should be able to get from junk yard, auto zone, ebay, CL, etc...
