Question Power Steering Addition ?

Hello all. Has anyone here added PS to a '67 GTO HO 4 spd with CA emissions? I've received some good advice on some of the parts I would need but the mounting bracket for PS pump, along with alternator mount is unclear. My Assy Manual is of poor quality and I can't make out part numbers.

In the end, I'm hoping someone here has made this add and can advise me on what I need to make steering this car easier without damaging its ability to return to original is desired. Hoping.....

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. I do drive the car but only on nice days. Since restoring the engine and under hood bay last year, it’s been driven about 700 miles.

I’m familiar with all the tricks to help steering a manual setup as I’ve had numerous vintage cars with manual steering. Maybe I’m getting lazy and maybe I’m just looking for the challenge but I do want to add period correct PS. What l don’t know is what hardware is needed to accommodate the PS pump and alternator. Hopefully, someone here has a CA emissions engine with PS and can/will advise me on how I can make the upgrade.

Bump for the cause .
Anyone have any good under hood pics of a 67 Cali AIR car with Pwr Strg - Non AC.
Any 67 Pontiac with AIR and PS would suffice .
