SW20 PS is EHPS, electronic hydraulic pump, dosnt have hydraulic pump in the engine bay or lines to the engine bay.

I see a lot of PS conversions where they graft an electric-assist power steering lower with upper half of your original steering column. That way you don't need to worry about running hydraulic lines and a pump in the engine bay.

Only thing you need to worry about is obviously finding the correct column to fit the SW20 one, and a mechanism to turn off EPS when not in use, which usually involves tapping into an ACC power source and using a relay to turn on EPS when it detects steering movement.

How much work is involved in swapping from non-power assist to power assist in a sw20?

Kind Regards
