Power steering Mod for a 1990 Clipper Auto Carb model

Just new to the forum and looking for help.

I would like to change the steering rack for a Power steering rack. Will bits froma MK2 fit or do I have to stick to Mk 1 rack, pump, pipes etc.

 Cheers

Rik

If you do a search on here and clubgti, you will find that VW didn't make a PS conversion for the RHD MK1. It can be done though.

RE:PAS
I've got a PAS system that comprises a Nissen Bluebird rack (1984 model I think), mk3 Golf pump and 'Heath Robinson' mounting brackets. Apparently it cost the previous owner ?1400 but to honest it looks more like ?14 worth.
Looking back over the time I've had the car the PAS has been the biggest source of grief I've had (Apart from the rusty fuel lneck filler, the clutch, the leaky roof, the misfiring, etc, etc).
Having said that I still think it's a worthwhile upgrade if you plan to keep your mk1.
You should drink more water.
1664 is 95% water.
Drink more beer? :)
