Should I change my i6 to v8 steering?
 

Hi All! My first post here...I have a 65 coupe i6 car that I'm putting a 302 into. Should I change out the the steering system to v8? I am also putting disc brakes on the front. Thanks

i had an i6 '68 that i went to a v8 on and it wasnt too bad to steer ...i just developed buldging muscles by the end of the summer when i first started driving it - the weight difference between that i6 and a 302 cant be more than 50-75 pounds and if you want to make that up just put the battery in the trunk

I would say yes change it out the steering box is much better then the ones usually found in the I6.

Pitman arm, drag link and all that are different between the inline 6 and v8, i swapped that stuff out when switched to a v8, but i still have the inline 6 steering box.
