I ordered this kit Saturday though Summit, they have a 2 week back order. In addition to the kit you need a remote P/S reservoir and later model power steering pump.

You can pick up the P/S pump from your local parts store (I got mine from O'Reillys). Just pick up one for a 1987 Pontiac Sunfire, cost me $60.00.

I don't see how that accomodates the AC compressor... in fact the table doesn't have a single YES in the AC column.
I guess you have to purchase the A/C bracket separately...

I cannot help with the A/C, but have the March system. The GM type II pump was a pain to get the right hoses and could never get the fittings to stop leaking. I finally fixed it with a aluminum Sweet pump with AN fittings/SS hoses and a canister with AN fittings. No problems since the upgrade.

The p/s pump is a PIA. I had to make my own lnes to go from metric to standard.... Used a pump out of a '90 vette. Works well, no leaks, just a pain with the double flaring, etc.. Good Luck
