I actually bought my 12:1 AGR box, part #292117, from Summit - it was $329 ($30 cheaper than buying direct).
Other than having to shorten the steering shaft and buy new u-joints and a new pitman arm, the AGR box bolted right in, took about 20 minutes.

I called AGR and they recommended one of the variable rate boxes. Seems like their prices were pretty good compared to some of the others. I can get a new box and a pump for the price of some of the other units. Was it a pretty straight forward bolt in replacement for you? I'll have to check out your web page while I am at work on the T1 line. I have a dial up here at home and even though it is 56k it is too slow for pictures etc. Guy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Herb Lumpp Sent: Saturday, October 11, 2003 8:12 AM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] Fast ratio steering box Hi Guy, I upgraded my manual steering to an AGR unit along with a Type II pump. I'm very pleased with how it works and feels, and even though Dale says you can't palm it like with the stock steering, when you go from a quick ratio manual setup to a quick ratio power setup, yes you can palm it! There are pictures of the new AGR box on my web page if you're interested...

On the web I have seen fast ratio boxes by AGR, and Global West. Has anyone had any experience with these? Did you go to a 12.5:1 or use a variable rate like those offered by AGR? AGR also offers pumps to match, any experience with these? thanks, Guy
