If my research is correct, I think the main problem with the ps steering pump is it's low location. My 327 has the "camel back" heads so that moves the alternater to the driver's side (the mount bracket bolts thru the water pump mounts) up high and the ps pump is very low (the bracket mounts next to the crank pulley). I am planning on getting (or making) a different power steering bracket to mount where the alt is, and move the alt to the passenger side.

As far as the exhaust manifolds go, my boss has manifolds from an LT1 caprice motor that are the "swept back" style and exit along the firewall. He's going to pull them off for me and bring them in. I think they will bolt right up. I've seen a couple sets of s10/v8 headers on craigslist here, $100. We'll see...

My steering shaft is temporary but looks like will clear, just barely. It might be different with the LT1 manifolds though.

What did you use for a trans crossmember? I think I can modify the s10 part.
