BTW, My buddy ran a looped power steering box on his drag car for 15yrs before I finally gave him enough greif to make him change it. Go figure.
I may eventually end up going to a manual box myself, but for now I'm trying to put together a "super cruiser". I've always liked having a car I could cruise anywhere in, get stuck in traffic for hours, and still have an outrageous appearance with respectable performance.

No I took the a/c off. It never worked very well so I didn't miss it. There were times I wish I had kept it. It was a T-top car and with the tops out all that HOT engine air came up and over the windshield into the interior, but if I had it probably would have over heated. Back then cooling system tech wasn't as good as it is today and it never ran hot, but it wasn't far from it.
