I am restoring a '67 fastback that I bought as a shell. Since I can't drive it, what is an acceptable amount of play in the steering box? Unfortunately, I have an early (long shaft) set up. It would be fairly easy to replace (or rebuild) the box now without the engine. It seems that the steering wheel moves 1/4 to 3/8ths.
Anybody have a comment about Chocostang rebuild vs Flaming River new unit?
Thanks in advance.

You are looking for the SMB-F for manual steering, and SMB-K for power steering, but that's just by the tag ID for authentic restoration. Either should work fine. Or any 16/1 box that has the same specs as those. I found a good source online. Will post that when I get to work tomorrow. Need to pull the receipt.
