Can you fit a Borgeson box, it’s brand new and modern.

She bought the pump, not the box.

Borgeson is complex. You might consider the recently marketed Lares 2.5 fast box. I put it in my 63 Fury and like it so far. The return connection, and maybe the input threads are different from stock. Lares Catalog - Lares Corporation

I have a Borgeson box sitting right beside the headers lol. I figured I'd get headers now since I have to pull one out to install the box.

The trip to Van Nuys few weeks back. I had Rich pull on the bracket as I tightened it. The belt was tight. Either the pump is not up to the task, the belt slips despite adequate tension or the Borgeson unit just needs greater pressure. I don’t know where the problem lies just yet.

...is right for you. No. If you buy a kit from BAC, the kit includes a new hybrid type coupler that makes the swap a bolt in deal. The Borgeson unit is actually shorter, smaller and lighter than any Mopar power steering unit. The hybrid coupler is longer to allow a stock steering column work...

Think I would just need hood and black wheels. Originally a 383 4 speed SB. Now has 496 stroker 6 pak. Doing a dana 60 rear, upgrading brakes from drums to power disk and installing a Borgeson ps.

Filter? for the PS? i didn't even think of that... Hope the cooler helps.. my pump was running 180ish on 65 degree days

Knowing what I know now, if Borgeson wasn't available, I'd do a FF Stage 1 or the lowest upgrade from stock from Steer and Gear AND upgrade my steering wheel from the large stock diameter to a 15" or 14" and call it a day.

Is the box truly "On Center" The input shaft on the Borgeson doesn't have a locator so it can be assembled in any position... If you are one spline off you'll have slop it what you are using as "On Center" The reason for this is the true center is ground to a tighter tolerance that the rest...

thanks for this! My box was installed not too many miles ago and I'm running a new (rebuilt) Saginaw pump. Less than 300 mi so far, but no noise or issues. I'll keep this info about the tuned Bergman box on file as a backup in case any future issues occur.

Do you have a link for this Lares box and pump?

...it might as well look into upgrading. Not for any other reason than I’ve read posts about it and people say it’s good. Can I just buy the Borgeson steering box and the Bergman no-cut coupler and make it work- or is it not that simple, do I have to buy the whole kit. I don’t race or often...

Looks like this OER. I'd contact them for adjustment instructions. https://www.jegs.com/i/OER/691/MN6542/10002/-1 Also... https://www.classicindustries.com/product/mn6542.html

Borgeson is also a bolt in if you order from Bergman... i put it on my car just before winter and it is a great setup. didn't have to modify anything

X2 Installed a Borgeson from Bergman Auto craft (Peter) in my friend’s Charger, it was the best upgrade to his car. I bought one for my Charger, getting ready to install it any day now.

I did it an Ebody, 71 Cuda, with stock ci manifolds 21/2" exhaust and dropped it from the bottom without moving any thing. I did replace it with a Borgeson box.

I emailed Borgeson about it. They told me my old pump was designed with the smaller pulley and their pump is designed with the larger puller. They basically told me the two pumps have different needs.

I sure remember you too. Is the other forum still alive? I can't remember chatting about the steering box but I remember chatting about the Tremec manual conversion.

...kit and a set of cop car reaction springs from firm feel. Not very hard to do. It was much better than stock but if originality and cost aren’t an issue, I’d go Borgeson. A lot of the stock 11-1 slop is from too much play between the lock collar and piston head assembly. That can be shimmed out.
