      Do you prefer manual or power steering?

      Title says it all.

      Power only, manual is for drag racing only.

      I went manual on my street/strip wagon. Talked about doing manual with my PT camaro build, but was talked out of it. Apparently turning a 315 in a parking lot might be difficult. The camaro isn't done yet.

      Power steering, manual brakes here. I love the combination.

      I don't like manual steering with a 22:1 ratio and 235s. I can't imagine manual steering in a PT setup....maybe with 5 degrees of negative camber ;).

      Power steering and power brakes on both my Vette and Dad'd Camaro. Borgeson 16-1 (think, maybe 12?) steering box on the vette and it feels great. Perfect balance, just enough assistance. I really throw the car around and it's super stable. Had 150mph out of it on the motorway.
      Camaro has Steeroids rack which is way too assisted, too nervous and twitchy, just fitting another valve to the pump to lower the pressure.
      Anyhow power steering all the way, you can always lower the pressure in the pumps with a valve/shims.
