The stock factory re-circulating ball steering box which came on the Corvette is vague and unresponsive. This is especially true on center where modern cars with rack and pinion excel with the crisp response you have come to expect. Power steering racks offer much quicker ratios over the stock steering. Steeroids(tm) rack and pinion conversions for 1967-1979 Corvettes yields approximately 2.5 turns lock-to-lock (power system), and 2.9 turns (manual system).
As an additional benefit you get a lighter weight steering system Steeroids(tm) rack and pinion conversions save up to 15 lbs over your stock setup, depending on how your car was originally equipped. Our kit is an entirely bolt on installation - absolutely no welding, cutting or drilling. Others claim to be bolt on but beware. The kit installs with basic hand tools in approximately 3-5 hours. On a power kit, your existing or readily available power steering pump and brackets can be used. If you choose a manual system (higher steering effort, but you save even more weight) no pump is required. The manual system is permanently lubricated, so there is no maintenance. An added feature of our kit is that you can adjust for bump steer. The only rack and pinion kit that does!
Steeroids(tm) rack and pinion conversion kits are complete kits; all the necessary parts are included. The kit completely replaces all your existing steering components! Yes, that includes that leaky, heavy steering box and klunky slave cylinder (what were they thinking).
