Default Fast Freddie's power steering kit

Hey guys, I'm thinking about trying this system on the flip-top project and would like to hear from anyone who has one. I have an Appleton power rack on KMP500 and am very happy with the performance. Autocrossing, open track days weekend drives, never a problem. I'm looking at other alternatives, (I know, more pushups), so I don't have to mount the pump on the cammer. Thanks, Darren

Couple of threads on it below - sorry for the cross-post.

When I researched it, the Feedback on the kit that I found was overwhelmingly positive. Adjustable assist, no-load on engine, mount anywhere, not likely to leak. A little pricey, but you could barely build the kit piece by piece for the $899.

I've installed Freddies setup on my still-being-built F5 and the kit components are first rate.

Darren,
I know of a couple of guys on another forum who have installed that unit. I asked them to weigh in. I think they are waiting on mod approval to post. From what I know, it looks like it would work really well for you. I'm going to use it, but don't have it in yet so I can't really give you any feedback.

John
