Late post August 69 BB power steering bracket
« on: October 25, 2013, 03:45:02 AM »
Saw a restored SS Big Block car that was a late production (post August 69)car. It had a power steering bracket like the 1970 model year type. Is this correct? Or, did they use the 1969 bracket setup the entire run?

I know you're looking for "post August", but my 08D 69 has both a "C JF" coded block and the "C BS" rear end so this might help you.... Here is a pic of my born with motor built 0728. I don't have a close up of the PS pump handy. Let me know if you need one and I can snap a pic when I get home for you.

Another possibility:   Back in the early to mid to late '70's, as Camaro drivers began using wider tires/wheels, I know *several* who went to Chevrolet (or junkyards) and purchased the necessary parts to add power steering to their car..
