not to steal your thread here. But I too am looking at my date code on my steering box and have questions!My 71 cuda is the same date 2/3/71 and here is the box in my car. I cant figure out the date! Can someone else? I also read in Olas new cuda book, that approximately on February 1st the 340 cars are suppose to switch over to quick ratio steering. My 2/3/71 car don't have it. Wondering if the box was added down the road? I have no broadcast sheet to show weather it was a p/s car or not? Anyway here are a couple of pictures of my date stamp. anyone able to read this date code?
