    Cold Case w/ electric fan vs factory fan and shroud

    You need to check the distance I just bought a cold case with the electric fan and did not have enough distance for it to fit. You need at least 6 3/4 inches for it to fit or a little more had to send mine back to jegs.

    Power Steering is Very Sloppy

    I got the borgeson box and love it. I did cut 1/2" off my shaft but after I found out there is a coupling that will work with it so you don't have to cut the shaft. It is in one of the threads on here.

    BORGESON steering box

    The only problem I had was one header pipe was hitting . I am running dougs headers 1 5/8. I tried to dent the header but was not able to. I put a 1/4" shim under the driver side motor mount it worked out fine. I love the gearbox like driving a new car.

    Steering issues

    Had the same problem with my 68 cuda . I checked everything under the car all was tight. Then tried to adjust the steering box no luck . Bit the bullit and got a borgeson box from summit. The car now drives like a new car.

    BORGESON steering box

    It's close but not hitting Yes, before I had to steer with one hand and move the steering wheel up and down. If you were on an uneven road it got to where it would dart.

    BORGESON steering box

    I got my new borgeson steering box installed. It is like day and night in the handling. I jacked up motor on driver side and pulled old box out from the top after pulling the header.

    Water Pump Fittings

    Take a propane torch and heat the old pump where the fitting screws in and it should come out.
