Default Power Steering Upgrade

I want to upgrade my '67 Coupe from manual to power steering. I've seen 3 after-market products.

HotRodsUSA.com has a manual rack and pinion they say feels like power steering. They also have a power system.

I've also seen one being offered by totalcontrolproducts.com (big bucks)

Finally, I've seen one being offered at
http://www.automotivesteroids.com/Mu...Steeroids.html

Does anyone have any experience with any of these products? Is there another option that you might suggest?

I drove one of the proto-type power steering systems from Total Control about 5 or 6 years ago and I was impressed. It was on a 67 302 hardtop and the beast hauled. It was a little wet but the response was more than enough to keep the factory guy hanging on.

Going from manual to power is not an upgrade IMO if you use stock parts. R&P is another story entirely.

Any good after-market system will cost big money. You get what you pay for.
