If a C3 did not come from the factory with PS or PB, how big a job is it to install PS or PB? I'm thinking it's not a weekend job, eh? But then how long and how much would it cost?

Never tried it but you should be able to go to a junk yard and get everything you need (year specific). I bet you could contact Contemporary Corvette here in Penna. and get hooked up. Or you could spend a small fortune and buy everything from one of the major suppliers.
I guess if I were doing it, I would buy the major hardware like the rotors from a junkyard and get new calipers with stainless sleeves and new PS pump from a supplier like Ecklers or MID America. Or get it all from the junkyard and rebuild the calipers and PS pump. Buy new brake lines for the calipers.
Good Luck.
