Thanks for he comment. I spoke with Ames and amongst the notes they have on the 121C box are "ACCORDING TO LARES THE INTERNAL STOPS ARE SET THE SAME AS FACTORY SO THE TURNING RADIUS FOR A-BODY CARS IS THE SAME B-BODY CARS WOULD END UP WITH LARGER THAN FACTORY TURNING RADIUS. 10:1 RATIO. "

So seems like this box should be OK. These notes do not appear in the catalog or the internet descriptions
