318 Upgrade

I traded in those SBC headers, got some Patriot headers and am having them put on at the shop. Passenger side was fine, but sure enough - that power steering coupler is an issue.

Will it just be a matter of removing it for installation? Or do you think I’m going to have to get a set of TTIs?

P.S. 750CFM carb works great, but buddy totally screwed up the throttle body assembly. Luckily the Dart Facebook group steered me towards the right parts and how to put it all together right.

Pulling the steering column is not uncommon for the install. In my case with Doug's headers, the stock coupler would no clear the rear tube. There are several ways to deal with that if it is an issue.
