I have the AGR box and like it very much. Prior to the AGR box I had manual steering and trust me when I say that took some muscle to move around a parking lot! I think the AGR box is very easy to steer - not as easy as my '04 Silverado, but that's ok with me. The pitman arm is different for manual and power. I bought my power pitman arm, part number 6467PAP ($69) from Classic Performance Products. http://www.classicperform.com/chevelle.htm#frchassis My pulley came with the pump/bracket kit so I don't know what it's part number is. However, it looks like part number 60101 except my pulley has lightening holes in it. I also have a two groove water pump pulley (6013FP) for a short water pump if you're interested in that too. Attached is a pic of both, the one on the left is for the w/p and the one on the right is for the p/s. I'll take $90 for both unless you only want the p/s pulley - $45 if that sounds good to you.

Very impressive engine compartment. I think I will go with Zoops for the ps bracket, and Summit for the (polished aluminum) Type 2 pump and reservoir. I am inclined to go with the AGR box. How do you like the way yours performs/feels? One alternative suggested by a list member is one remanufactured by Power Steering Services, which would also have 12:1. One person commented that theirs (AGR) felt a bit stiff by comparison to stock. This may be due to the 12:1 ratio difference. I am assuming that the pitman arm is the same for manual and power? I am definitely interested in your V-belt pulley. What is the Zoops pn and What would you take for it?

I made the hoses myself because I'm using a hydrobooster for my brakes. If you plan to use V-belts, don't buy the pullye because I have a two groove that's nearly brand new because I switched to serpentine. On these two links, there are some pictures of the p/s... http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/El_Camino_Engine.htm http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/El_Camino_Engine.2.htm Herb Lumpp http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/index.htm -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Fred Dowaliby Sent: Monday, December 20, 2004 10:30 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] power steering conversion Dale, Thanks for your reply. As I don't have a power box I think I will buy the AGR from Summit. It's either that or the boneyard, and I've been spoiled with new parts lately. A bit pricey at $329.95 but it is manufactured with new components and gives a 12:1 ratio. I think I have no choice but to use a Type 2 pump as my alternator is inwardly mounted right above with a short water pump configuration. Now all I need to do is figure out where to put the reservoir, as you said.

It wasn't so stiff as to not be power, but not as free and easy as before. If you have another P/S box, you might consider someone like http://www.powersteering.com/ out of Springfield, MO to rebuild a box. I haven't used them but others on Team Chevelle have and rate their products as first class. $235.00 exchange for a GM quick-ratio 12:1 conversion. To me, the primary advantage of a Type II pump is it's smaller and the reservoir is remote making a little cleaner installation as long as you have a place to mount the reservoir. Reservoir is also easier to check/fill if not behind belts. Dale McIntosh 67 El Camino/96 BMW Z3 ACES #1709/TC Gold #92 I've stopped 8,535 spam and fraud messages. You can too!
