OK,
Been researching this alot and have decided to go with a CARDONE 276550 box, order the fittings and new coupler from Lee manufacturing, and the MOOG K6582 LONG pitman arm. From what I read this seems to be the cheapest way to get a new sports car fast ratio AND the better feel in the steering.
Questions I have are
1. Can I use the original power steering pump and hoses? If not which ones do I need?
2. If I go with the longer pitman arm do I have to change the idler arm or other suspension parts to match it?(I originally had the short arm)
3. Were there any clearance issues with headers that I need to worry about?(longer arm effect or box size)
Any pros or cons that anyone has experienced would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
