Does anyone offer a turn key electric power steering conversion kit for an LS1 4th Gen?

I've see a few write ups on doing it yourself but I'm looking for a kit. Is using the set up a 6th Gen Camaro uses possible?

I'm also interested in doing this to my LS1 swapped 91 RS.

Thank you for any details and info.

Pretty sure not. Seems pumps are available. The single biggest issue is the steering shaft modification. Retrofitting one on your existing shaft would be tough, and a NEW column ready for electric would be out of most people's budget. The new mustangs have their power unit built in to the rack, which is cool as ****, but they are about 750 bucks for a reman.

Should be pretty straightforward to do an electronic setup. I want to say it's the Saturn Vue unit everyone likes to use.
