Jeep 4.0 in 69 Barracuda

Hit submit before addressing this. I don't really know if that is the case. I will need to do more research in that. But even if it is, I could go hydro ram steering. No its not legal for road use, and I would be fined heavily if it was found to be the cause of an accident. But Semi's only have that (as I understand it), and I know jeep owners who remove the steering box an attach a ram on the front axle. So even if the steering box was an issue for the 265, its just another excuse to make more modifications... lol

Well here is a pic of a hemi 6 in an RHD car:


It looks like the carbs/intake would hit a power brake booster.(maybe a hydro boost, manual brakes or a remote booster swap?) And the full length header would get in the way of the steering box.

However, a cherokee exhaust manifol might be able to be modified to work around the box:

The intake is the big mystery. Obviously we don't if its wider or narrower than the hemi 6 intake/carb setup. However, even if it did get in the way, you could possibly do like the 240z guys when they convert their L28's to efi.(w/o the later efi manifold)
