i have a 73 duster with a 340 in it. hipo manifolds xheads and power steering. my question is this. when i drive the car for an hour or so my steering column gets very hot i mean almost to the point of not being able to touch the column shaft. i can feel intense heat off of it on my legs. now i dont have any firewall insulation in the car and there is nothing touching the shaft in the engine compartment. any reason for this heat or did anyone else have this problem. i just seems the heat is coming up through the shaft and im worried about my wires in the column.thank for any help,mike.
