I think you'll also need the steering box from a truck that has power steering. I'm assuming by your name that you have a '67? Was power steering offered in your body style of truck? If not, it may be difficult to find a power steering steering box that will bolt to your frame.
The pumps from the later year vans are generally considered the best you can get. You'll need the brackets and pump from one.

Does the 67 block have the bolt holes on the front driver's side for the PS pump brackets? If so, and they're the same as the 80s, no reason I can see it wouldn't bolt up. But, I don't know from experience if they're in the same spot.
