Power Steering changeover on a 69 Coronet

Hey guys,weird problem,I feel silly asking this.I had recently installed a complete power steering setup on this Coronet R/T which was a manual steering car.The change over had a few obsticales,pulleys,etc.But seemed to go ok,BUT, I knowthe steering wheel and coupler has a master spline,so,one way only,but the steering wheel is off center to the right by almost 90'.Does'nt make sense.Any suggestions?I had did the front end early summer/lower bushings,struts,shocks, and alignment with the manual steering box,but after this changeover,steering wheel way off the right,Hmmmmmmmm.Could use some ideas.Thanks all!

You will need to get another alignment is sounds like. Only other way is to see if you can clock the pitman arm.

Just loosen the tie rod end slleves and turn each side the same number of times until the wheel is straight.

Oh, yes, get an alignment.

Is the steering gear you put in a new one, used or remanufactured?
