Default Classic Roadster Electric Power Steering

I have to switch to power steering on my 2007 model Classic Roadster. I think it currently has the Mustang 2 manual rack and pinion.
I think the easiest swap would be an electric power assist, the type that has the electric motor mounted right on the rack. It looks like there would be room for the electric power motor.
I have a 4.6 litre DOHC V8 installed and there is not enough room to mount the type that mounts midway in the steering column and I am not interested in mounting the remote pump on the engine with hoses going to the rack. I intend to put a supercharger on the engine and want to keep the front of it clean rather than adding pulleys and hoses.
What has worked for anyone else? I would need the wiring to power it too.

Thanks for any suggestions.
Bob
