I have a 1983 Chev C10 short bed stepside, with a 1987 IROC Z28 350 TPI, and I would like to convert the steering to a power rack using GM parts.  Does any know which rack will fit?  Will my stock pump work with it?  The truck is a front steerer, I'm hoping this will help ease the conversion.
 Thanks for any and all help

Honestly any rack will about work you will have to make mounts, steering shaft, and custom tie rod ends. Depending on the pump style yes it will definetly work but some racks need a pressure controller to reduce pressure a little bit.
