I've done the 3.0 - 4.3 swap all but getting new exhaust manifolds and final wiring. The engine is set and all looks good.

I realized that my boat (1998 Tracker Tahoe) has manual steering but the donor boat (1987 Citation) has power steering. I have not looked at it closely, but what would I need to do to mount the power steering rack from the 1987 boat to mine? Is it worth even doing?

Thanks !

Ok - great. I was hoping that was the case. The pump and cooler are on the 4.3 so all I have to do is move the actuator and hook my lines back up.
I appreciate all the help you have given me on this project.
Thank you !
