JR- Yeah, It still needs cut and buffed. I have orange peel issues on both quarters, but not too bad though. The poor quality pics make it look worse than it is.

Hibs- I'm using a Speartech f-body harness. He pulls all of the wires out of the PCM that you need to hook up. It's really no big deal at all. Now getting it to fit under the bezel takes a little work. lol

so can i modify it? if not what do i need and what is the part number... i plan on using the stock rack and pinion as well

I have see some people modify them.. But you essentially end up with the same product.. I bought part # FLA-FR1504PLP, The majority of your fox swap guys have done the same.. Works great..

You can cut the rag joint off and weld a U-joint on. Flamming River only make 2 styles..one for PS rack and one for a manual rack.

i think for safety reasons ill be buying the flaming river unit. its $180 but i feel safer doing it that way. thanks. ill be posting pics of my project once i start tearing everything apart. im waiting on my cam and kooks headers then ill start. i have every other peice though. its an 89 coupe 4 cylinder with an 07 ls2 and 04 gto m12 6 speed.

so is the one you have better then this one
#FR1504P? i see the one you have says "low profile". just trying to make sure i get the best one since im trying to have the complete swap done and running in about a week

go to summitracing.com and put in that part # and it will bring it up..Where are you looking at buying it from..?

im useing the aje k-member and the bbk 351 headers and my rag joint kleers just fine. but because the aje k lowers the rack to clear the oil pan, the stock steering shaft is too short so im going to chop it and weld it longer.
180 dollars seems like a waste of money for a shaft.

which K-member? the Chevy motor swap K-member or a 4.6 Kmember?

Les_SS

iTrader: (6)

im using the aje that everyone is using. the one that fits chevy motors.

im looking the part number up on jegs. is the flaming river unit long enough to fit with the aje?

I'm Looking forward to seeing it.

I bought the Racecraft one... It is smaller in diameter than the Flaming River and leaves more room for clearance. It also is extremely hardened, it took 4 cut off wheels to cut it to the right length. I think if I had a chop saw, it would have been easier, but I didn't. It also melted 4 titanium drill bits trying to drill the hole for the bolt. Once it was in, it fit perfectly.

You can see the shaft in the right of the picture. I will take a pic, now that it is installed.

Qwiknotch

Here it is, installed, you can see how much smaller and compact it is, much more room than the FR one...
