62 Dart (B-body) Power Steering -- Question

[RPMagoo]

I currently have a 62 Dart with a Mopar power steering box. -- It has a soft feel, and some (too much) play. -- The adjustment screw is as tight as possible. -- I plan to replace it with a Borgenson power steering box. -- Somewhere, I have read that to remove the Mopar box, I will have to raise the motor, to get it out. -- I can't find where I read this. -- Is this true -- Will I have to raise the motor ?

No need to raise the motor. If you have headers you need to remove drivers side. Removing the starter is recommended. You're dropping it out from the bottom. Very heavy unit, like 48lbs heavy.

It's a 440. with headers -- the headers look as if they're not going to be an issue. -- I have Vertigo, real ,bad, and have to hire help for most issues. -- This, for sure.
