Whats better Manual steering or Power?
All of our bb dart are manual steering but they have skinny frontrunners and are rarely driven on the street so they are no big deal and I like the feel at the track of the manual box. I had a 74(i think)swinger with a 383/auto with manifolds instead of headers and pwr steering and it was nice as it was my daily driver for a yr. only thing I didn't like was building spark plug wires for it was it's one more thing to take off(pwr steering pump)as I like to take the alternator and pwr steering pump off for better access to the front plugs. The manifolds didnt help either for access but thats a whole nother post. My new project 360/4spd will have pwr steering because thats what I have right now. If I come across a good deal on a manual box later down the road I might switch it. I wouldnt need a diff colum because I have that cool adapter from firm feel make to mate a pwr colum to a manual box. Ive used it b4 and it works great, it's a cpl bucks but cheaper than a manual colum.
