Does anybody know if the 956 had power steering?

No, they don't, the steering of the 356 is very light. Power steering isn't
needed.

LOL!!

I pretty sure the 956 never had power steering during its life. I have a few
full references to the spec of the car and all of them show and state 'rack
and pinion'. Power steering would have been a drain on the power of the
engine, as was the same concern with the PDK transmission when it was tried.

No, not 356,  956 - as in racecar.

I think this thread is beginning to suggest that when you have seen one
Porsche, you have seen them all....
