I'm glad my 86 442 came factory with the quick ratio steering box I did a quick and cheap upgrade by adding a third gen f-body power steering cooler to my car and added the twin electric fans from the third gen f-body I like your videos I'm doing a lot of the same things to my car that you are doing. Thanks for all the great content your sharing 👍👍

If you are upgrading the box to a quicker 12.7:1 ratio box, you need to upgrade the power steering pump flow rate and pressure. The flow restrictor and relief is in the back of the pump where the high pressure line comes out. Drill the office to #26 (0.147") and remove the shim from the relief valve.

@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports I was referring to the stock Saginaw pump with the 16:1 box. you will need to do a flow rate and pressure output check on the LS pump

As noted I think in a comment down below, steering box from 3rd gen Camaro or Firebird 82-92, it is imprinted with a Z on the top of the steering box which tells you what has the quicker steering ratio. You are correct all of my SS Monte Carlos have the same steering box with the Z, which agian indicates the quicker steering ratio. Thanks for the info on the steering shaft. Peace out.

These Cardone's fit in a lot of GM products. Great swap for a 12.7 ratio upgrade. Just know that the spline is 3/4 30 vs a 36 spline that was in 60s and 70s cars. Just means you need a new rag joint that is 30 spline.
