Av8 Cross steer or side steer

Im buildin a 30' Roadster, tring to use as much ford gear as possible! But hit the wall at steering box, i wanted to use early ford v8 box (37 on) but seams impossible with Edelbrock heads. So been thinkin maybe side steer?

 

personally new veag box with cross steering works well

 

thanks joee, Been hearin bout these vega boxes (R they based on a GM box?) but the prob here down under is RHD not sure if they do em?

 

thanks skid! have you got stock heads? shaft clearance?

 

Early VW Kombi ( bus ) is another option for you if you want to go push/pull rather than cross steer .



.

 

skid would you have any pics? have u got uni's in the shaft?

 

thanks 4t6ford, have been thinkin bout that option

 

you can knotch the steering column if that helps, i doesnt need to stay as a tube...

 

The Land Rover Series truck box works well and looks pretty cool. Ironic thing is, you'd have to find a LHD model to use "down under", as the pitman comes off the inside of the box. We use the RHD version here in the States... How British is that???

 

thanks heaps every1, skidmarks im strugglin to work out how you've worked it! Ive ditched the outter column and just the shaft nilly kisses the drivers (RHD) head! and im still strugglin to get the shaft throw the firewall propley
