Questions about Saginaw 605 replacement boxes
hey guys, long time since I was here, its time to rebuild the front end of the 41 Chrysler/w 38 Chevy nose.
I bought stuff for a mid 70s Chevy as the original builder didn't remember what he used 30 yrs ago. He said 70 Monte, 70s Nova/Camaro. I looked under a 76 Nova once and it looked pretty close to this.
Maybe someone can tell from the pics what it was.
Anyway I am replacing the leaky steering box too. I searched for mid 70s boxes on Summit and ended up with a Cardone box that seems to replace a Saginaw 700 series.
After taking the fender off it seems to have a 605 on it. It has a 3 bolt mounting pad instead of 4 on the replacement and the front part is longer than the one on the car, not sure it will clear the fender.
Anyone know where to get a correct replacement or another 605

Girls love Hot Rods too
I wonder if air could be trapped in there, maybe more run time would purge it out.
