We had a meeting today about this.. My machinist said.. don't worry about it.. we will get her done!! We got a good game plan for the the power steering.. design with machining a few brackets & pulleys.. it will be a while till we get to that though.. We have alot of other work we need to get done first .. but I see a few other Mustangs coming on that might need these parts also..

Next I looked at the Flaming River unit that Matt from Anvil is running and realized it costs $6000 - now I think electric power steering is cool, but 6 grand cool? and that cost doesn't include a column or rack!

TurnKey has been playing around with using what I believe is an electronic conventional unit that adjusts pressure based on speed so the steering "weights up." I think it is an OE Toyota part that Porsche guys first started to retrofit.
