Don't forget guys, power steering (also what I have), robs roughly 11 horse power to run. Only by removing the belt you can usually pick up 2 tenths in the quarter.
Just my .02
I don't know where you heard that.I have always read that it takes 3hp to run it in full lock detent and 1hp just going down the track.To me ps is so much more enjoyable to drive and no car of mine will be without it.I drove numerous mopars in the 70's with manual steering and they were a bear to drive.In a high horsepower car you don't need to fight the steering to slow down your response time
