It's a Dart update!
I've had a lot going on and not been able to wrench on the Dart for a while. Recently, I've been thinking about what to do with the power steering lines, when finally it hit me: With a turbo that big, this is going to be a drag car more than anything else, and what's a drag car need power steering for? The A-body manual steering boxes are aluminum, too, and save a lot of weight. I've got a line on one from slantsix.org, and will be ordering an adapter from Firm Feel as the power steering column is shorter than the manual steering design. Friday, I made a start by taking the pump off. As a bonus, I see there's more room for beefing up my turbo support with not having to worry about power steering lines.
