large sector shaft quick ratio pitman

The standard power steering ratio is 16:1, which isn't horrible. That said, and having both the standard 16:1 power steering in my Challenger and a 16:1 Flaming River manual box in my Duster, I can see how 12:1 would be an advantage. My understanding is that's what the Hotchkis Challenger runs, courtesy of a Howe 1.5:1 steering quickner. I'd love to run that in my Duster, holy go-cart Batman. But my little stick arms wouldn't be able to turn the 275's up front fast enough if I did that, I'd have to go power.

Keep in mine that not all headers clear the fast ratio pitman and idler arms. Firm Feel has a pretty decent list of what fits and what doesn't. In theory, mixing and maxing them shouldn't make a difference, I think all of them are set up to create a 12:1 final ratio. So, they SHOULD be the same length. But with that said, I have a personal policy of trying not to mix and match parts that work as a pair. Seems to have adverse affects, even if it shouldn't in theory.
