    Steering box is shot, now what?

    Not trying to add more fuel to the fire for a company I know nothing about. I stated above that I read something unfavorable and just wanted to post where I read it. I'll more than likely buy one of their boxes or a borgeson

    Steering box is shot, now what?

    The new suspension has about 15 miles on it so it's not like I'm driving it around with a worn out box. Just trying to do the build in stages as funds permit. Having all the suspension removed doesn't really affect the removal of the box anyways. What lesson was I supposed to learn?

    Steering box is shot, now what?

    The adjustment screw feels fully "bottomed out" and turing it the other way make it much worse. I'll look into the flaming river boxes again. I'm not sure I want to replace the column, but updating the whole system to the newer collapsible style would be a good thing.

    Question for those that road race / autocross

    Subframes are on the list as well as a 4pt roll bar. I have 5 leaf mid eyes in the rear now. Any panhard kits out there you guys would recommend? The new vettes have come so far performance wise, it's probably not a fair comparison as the stock vette approaches many other supercars costing 3...

    Steering box is shot, now what?

    Done a lot of research on that site. Just curious if a straight rebuild is the wa to go. I'm not concerned with originality.

    Question for those that road race / autocross

    A week ago I had a chance to do some "Hot Laps" at Bondurant School of driving. In a "Hot Lap" you sit shotgun in a 2008 Corvette and ride around the road course with other drivers and other Vettes as they basically race each other. Obviously, this was an amzing ride made even more so by the...

    Sweet build. Glad to see you going with a mod motor. I thought i was a shame to get rid of those shock towers just to put a 302 in there

    289 Stroked 347 Open Headers - YouTube

    What are the specs on the valvetrain? What kind of power would you expect it to be making? I'd like to stroke my stock 289 to 347 and go to a full roller setup. Nice work and sounds great.

    66 Steering Box Question

    I currently have the entire steering and suspension removed from the front of my 66 coupe preparing to install new open tracker components. While looking the car over, I grabbed the pitman arm and gave it a tug. There is about 3/16 of "slop" when pulling the pitman arm back and forth. Is...
