    Any time a seller has to quote a new price and say in the ad they think the price is fair....

    Is it similar to the Mercury Comet set ups that we have used?

    Its an early version of whats used on the 70,s and 80,s corvettes. You can buy all the needed parts new or rebilt.

    The massive job is making it addapt to your van.
    With full machine shop, welding shop and mechanical shop at my disposal free. It took me about 100 hrs of design and manufacturing.
    It did however work out real nice.

    Even so; I now say the integral steering box is the way to go with much less work,like Sparky did.

    That control valve is the problem,,,,so if the valve is built into the steering box,,,,then all you got to do is the pump and ram ,,,,,,,so you need to modify the van to accept the newer steering box and steering column,,,,
