careful here, the rack looks like it will bolt right in, but there's the
issue of where to mount the pump.  if you've got a milano 2.5 or 3.0 block
you'll have a place to mount the power steering pump, i don't recall seeing
anything on the gtv6 block.

i've always thought that alfa did a great job with the power steering in the
milanos.  just enough to make it useful when parking, and still a great feel
at speed.  i'm still pondering power steering when i put the 3.0 in the
gtv6..
