What room do you have at the front of the motor, reason i ask is we did a C.S.B in a Manta A Series and ran the exhaust headers foward and down instead of back and down, TVR do the same i believe .
If thsi was possible then all the above will go away as you can keep the steering box, just an idea
Cheers

Yes one to consider. Will see how the land lies once the rack is/if it ever gets sorted.
That idea also lends itself nicely to to turbo applications I believe
However, the steering box header interface is such that the header exits directly into the side of the steering box. This is worse on a right hand drive as the step of the cylinders means that pot exits right into the side of the box. Almost touching the top of the cylinder head, with only the angle of the v on the exhaust side of the head for exit. If that makes sense.
I realise thats most likely to be a simpler solution to fix short term, as most manufacturers don't hesitate to install such things by all accounts. However I feel there is an oppertunity to bin the box altogether. I think
and if things go to plan, the header compromise will be unacceptable later on.
