anyone have ideas on power steering for a F swap?
I want to drop the F23a1 into my hatch "92 dx"soon but before it go's in and is settled i kinda wanted to figure out how to put PS in. would love to keep my AC too, but not sure whats interchangeable for this swap.
any thoughts?
for all you haters, don't ask me why or tell me it's dumb. info is all that needs to be said.

Re: anyone have ideas on power steering for a F swap?
are you doing a straight swap or an F2D/F2B swap?
i'm working on an F2D with the F23 block and plan to keep A/C. i won't be using P/S so i havn't looked at compatability.
a straight swap may allow more room for the P/S belt, but i can tell you for sure that the F2D will not have room for the extra belt unless you're going to cut the frame.
likely the best route would be to put the D-series accessories in the stock F-series location with custom brackets. it may be possible to reuse the P/S and/or alt. brackets from the F23, or modify them to work. you may just have to do some trial and error..
you'll also need a push-type slim fan on the condensor, so you can remove the stock fan and make room for all the accessories.
