Took the power steering off my 74 Charger and swapped in manual a long time ago (I was young and strong). It was ok and it cleaned up the engine bay. I am not a young man anymore and trying to swing that big old boat around with manual steering is a PIA. I have the Borgeson kit and will be swapping that in this winter. I cant wait to cruise the car and actually be able to enjoy it again. Plus the wife will be able to drive it as well. She cant do the manual steering at all.
