Nice project you ve got there
Are those rims the one used on the mk7 tranny? they are cool
About the power steering , somewhere here there was a conversion to an eletric type pas, and the standard transit box was not modifed. only the shaft column and the pedal box was modded.

I think it was a system off an Opel corsa or similar.
out of interest: how much did you paid for that engine roughly? here that would be in lot of thousands
