Going to need the following;

new PS steering box
new PS steering column (I believe the manual column is longer)
PS pump
PS lines
perhaps a new pulley set for the water pump and crankshaft

Not super hard to do but does require the parts. You can buy aftermarket parts that do this but they are not cheap (steering column can be $1000)

Yes, Summit will have probably everything you need. Obviously not going to be cheap but probably worth it.
