Well Dave, you didn't say what yr your C3 is or whether you bought an OEM power steering set up or aftermarket. My '70 has factory power steering which over the years I have replaced every bit of it. I don't think I have anything special in my motor mounts and all the components that I have replaced or rebuilt fit and work. I was once going to overdrive my pump with a smaller wheel to get more assist out of it, but it works as the factory designed it and I decided to let it alone. If you have the right parts for the right year I don't think you should have any trouble.
