That's only if Summit has it in stock and they don't! Summit now have the box in stock so I've called them to see if they could match the same price and since the Performance online site does not show the same P/N than Summit they don't want to match the price... This is BS! BTW the guy on the phone was really grumpy... Last edited by 74_360_Cuda; 02/08/13 06:04 PM.

Any benefit to reducing the assist pressure on this box like on the facory units? Since it uses a rack-type valve, I don't think the pressure is critical. Rick Sorry for last post... did not mean to start anythig so back to what really mathers I want to purchase a new PS pump and I can order it pre-set at 1200psi or 850psi... I don't know how to interpret the answer from Rick above, what would you guys use as a starting point?

Can you PM me with a price if I lose the bidding. I am Canadian but shipping is to Detroit area. Last edited by racealittle; 02/13/13 06:45 PM. Too many cars, too many parts, too little coin, too little space to work in, too little time left to make it all happen! Update: down to one ride, still too many parts, a little more jingle in the pocket, gaining space, and it's going to happen this year!

I'll be buying one from ya - are you selling (or will be selling) A high pressure line from the boregson to the saginaw pump? (not an adapter for the oem lines but a new line with the proper ends that fit on the saginaw and boregson)

It doen't make sense for me to make lines for every application when you can buy whatever lines would belong on your car if it has ps. The factory box does the pressure line the same way in most cases where it converts from female thread on the box to male thread. Most factory pressure lines use a female thread on the end of the hose, which is the same as the adapter I'm making.

Very happy with my purchase. Unfortunatly I live in Canada so I will need to wait until spring to try it and report here... BTW, About the price of this box, When you are living outside US like me it would have cost a fortune to pay twice for the shipping of my old HEAVY core to Firm Feel and back to me. So with this box at the end I have a more modern lighter box for about the same price so it was a no brainer for me.

This should be a nice upgrade, just hope it keeps its feel longer than the stock boxes do. When I last bought a Firm Feel box I called a local scrap yard in their area and had them bring a core to Firm Feel, the shipping from Canada was over $100 at the time.
