Thanks guys...I need to get rid of the stupid, huge rag joint as well so I will weld in some kind of coupler and bypass that ripoff power/manual adapter deal..... I also bought the solid aluminum body bushings from cudazappa and they are awesome!! I also plan on running an electric water pump in the big block sothats another reason the power steering has to go.... TBF

check to see if flaming river has something to eliminate the rag joint , they do have a direct coupler for the manual box.

A,B & E manual boxes all have the same mounting design as your Cordoba, a B/E body pitman arm will interchange with your stock pitman arm & you'll need the adapter to connect your steering shaft to the manual box...
The adapter is shown in this link..

But the price they are asking is crazy, that part use to sell for $45.00 but when I searched there were three vendors selling it & they are all
Better but still...

Now that it's NS! from the dealer the price has gone thru the roof on that .

I might be interested in the box and the lower part up to the rag joint..... I'll send you an email. I was not sure if the f-body's used manual steering or not. I had an old 80 aspen with a slant 6 and it was power..... TBF
