    Brian,
    That will teach you to mess around with modern stuff, stick with underhead valves.

    Have been doing lots of other work on the shoebox. But my advice is make your own power steering bracket, this one is pure junk. Thought I had it sorted but after finding or more , in finding no belt to fit correctly in length . It seems I will have to cut the bracket up to gain sufficient horizontal pivot to tension the belt. I will have to move the bracket 3/4 " from the block water outlet stud to gain enough belt tension. I cut the arced adjuster and lengthen it but it seem all I gained was vertical tension not the needed horizontal tension. So what remains of the original is very little.
    These are an expensive experiment
