Default 1966 Chevelle 396 375 question

Someone asked me if you could get power steering on a 66 Chevelle 375 car. I said that I didn't know but knew people who did! Does anyone know if it was available? Thanks!

Was power steering available with all Chevrolet engines, other than L88 and ZR1?

Default 66 Chevelle 396/375 HP

In 1966 the Chevelle L78 came with the optional N40 Power Steering in 248 units only

Which engines couldn't get power steering? (let's say 1965 and later)
Most of the list may be Corvettes: L88 and ZR1. Early 70 LT1's couldn't, but that changed mid year.

I still see people post that you couldn't get a 67-69 Z28 with ps....

Default power steering

63 to 65 Corvette small block with solid lifters no power steering due to larger oil pan.
