Looking for pictures of the differences between a manual and power steering box.

I don't men to hijack this thread but i'm wondering....does the manual steering box give considerably more room for headers?

I would like to add a question also. 

What is the horse power gap between the two.  Is it considerable horse power?

I switched to power steering last year and had no issues with the headers:



Certainly more room with the manual box, sorry no pics.

I've driven both  -  power steering and manual steering.   I have to say that I prefer the power steering to turning a plow.

  on my car it was 4 hp less. I switched back to ps, and when it was on dyno, I took off the belt to see how much, but it was like 4 hp.

What is the size and make of your headers?

Just curious.

I have to jump in here. I usually convert from power to manual. The power steering is so over assisted that I find there is no road feel when driving. It's also just something else to spring a leak. The manual box is not filled with liquid.

You should really try a Firm Feel Stage III, I found it quite impressive

I might just do that. I've heard good things

When driving it feels remarkably like manual steering, until you need to park or something, then it has just enough assist to steer easy.

Don't might!...Just do it!

No regrets.
