Vega steering boxes work great, especially in a smaller car. Stay away from traditional steer and go with cross steering, you will have a much better handling gasser when done. Make sure that you have the draglink parallel or as parallel as you can to the front axle as that will help you avoid bumpsteer problems. Good luck on the build and post pics of the progress!

I was thinking that cross would be the way to go.I am finishing up one project and have two to go.Then i can start been getting parts,got a blower manifold for my 440 dodge so i will start setting up the blower so i can make the drive and pulleys.Looks like i will buy a set up from speedway motors.For the money it looks good.
