12:1 Manual Box??

['86 455 Regal]

Hi Guys,

Anyone have ANY info as to whether this manual box from Flaming River will work for our G-Bodies or not?? I notice this box is a much-more-like-it 12:1 ratio vs the 20:1 or even the S-10's 24:1 ratios.

Let's hear some thoughts! I was wanting to go with TRZ's rack but DO NOT want to loose turning radius as I want to drive on the street as much as I possibly can.

You drive it on the street you need to start lifting weights so you can turn it. Not kidding either. Used to have a GMC with "strong arm" steering and it was a pain.
