Advice Needed [ Centerlink & V8 conversion ]

cudamark said
It's the center shaft and coupler that are different between the power and manual steering gears. The rest of the original column you can use. All the steering linkage is the same between the 6 and 8 too (including the pitman and idler arm), except for the center link.

Thank you - good to know I like to use the push button trans column or manual column so selector isn't up top.

Actually, it might. It all depends on which mounts, which pan...how the car was put together.....all that. I had a 65 Valiant slant car I put a 360 in years ago. I didn't even know then about the different center links. Mine cleared fine. It was close, but it cleared. There have been others with similar results.

I will get photos next week of what I have and share so you veterans can advise me etc . I'm obtaining tires now that hold air since car was setting since 1990 car cleaned up nicely and I can wait to get 225 running and check vitals so I can sale it and trans .
