Fantastic picture ! How did you route the steering column in the end?
Re: SEA770: 541 with V8 (331 hemi)
we're not quite there yet, but the steering column is rerouted compared to the usual setup. how is it in yours?

Re: SEA770: 541 with V8 (331 hemi)
Had me going for a minute! I was assuming the car pictured was SEA 770...!! 605 KUE has a standard 541S steering rack, being 4" wider it passes the manifold (Just) . I remember the 70's JOC article saying it had a different from standard column route and there was still evidence of this in SEA 770......
Re: SEA770: 541 with V8 (331 hemi)
yellow!? ...and should they remain yellow?

Could look smart if done well. Depends what colour you are going to choose for the body.
