Default 1968-1969 parts interchange?

I have a 1969 corvette small block all original . It has no power brakes, no power steering from the factory. I also have a 1968 that's a factory big block car. It has power brakes, and power steering . My question is will stuff interchange with mine? Will the rack and pinion and the gearbox work on my 69? Will the power brake booster work on mine?

There is no rack and pinion steering unless you have installed an after market unit. The other items will swap without much fan fare with the exception of BB vs small block pulleys. Power brake installation requires changes to the firewall opening for the booster. Do you have the 69 assembly instruction manual (AIM)?

What's the status of the 68 BB? Seems a shame to pull parts off to add to another car if the BB can be saved.
