Default power steering?

Im pulling my car out of the body shop in about a week and the steering on the car sucks!! I replaced everything to go power steering and the PS box was bad. I'm not too upset about it since it was given to me by someone who had it in their garage for years and had no idea of the condition, but being on a really tight budget I had to try So now I want to find the most affordable way to get my steering where i want it. Eventually I want R&P but for now i'll have to hold off. So which vendors have the best deals to find a power steering box, rag joint, pump, etc.. looking for everything I will need. Maybe someone has some parts laying around they want to sell. Thanks in advance for any help guys!

DSE and ATS have steering boxes, and you could also look into 3rd Gen F-Body/IROC boxes.

Thanks! the third gens box bolts in the 1st gens with no issues? if not what kind of modifications need to be made? that sounds like it could be my cheapest option just to get rolling for now. Sorry if I sound ignorant, im not very familiar with what is interchangable between which gen camaros. Thanks again
