On a 56 Bel Air is it better, cheaper, easier do install power rack and pinion or power recirculating ball ?

And when you need to buy everything it takes for these conversions, how much do they cost.

Thanks in advance as I am a new member and the Forum will not allow me to respond to threads

500 Series Power Steering Boxes for Chevrolet (http://www.classicperform.com/NewProducts/2006/NewFiles/Series500.htm)

The CPP 500 Series box is the way to go! Rack and pinions are more money and require more modifiation to use. The Header clearance for the steering hookup is a challenge being a rear steer setup.

So with the new steering box it has the ease of installation + half the cost! Also, better road feel, turning radius, and all and all a much better setup.
