THE 2004 GREAT EIGHT
It was once said, “To aspire to perfection is the goal of all who create, as anything less confines us to conformity,” and never has this been more apparent than in the numerous rodding creations being shaped today. Never before has so much time, effort and expense been lavished on vehicles that were once pushed aside in favor of newer endeavors.

GOODGUYS NATIONALS 2003
When Gary Meadors started the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association, he had a plan. He wanted his association to be open to a larger variety of cars, not just street rods. Meadors, a street rod enthusiast, has owned a variety of them since he was a kid, but he is also what we would call a real car guy. He likes everything from classic cars to customs.

Top 10 Camshaft Tips
The camshaft is often called an engine’s “brain,” and that’s an apt comparison. The cam controls all the major timing events in the valvetrain, which means it is responsible for how efficiently the engine can ingest and combust the air/fuel mixture. Choosing the right cam profile for your engine

Product Spotlight: Borgeson Street & Performance Series, K-10, 12.7:1 Power Steering Box
For 1968-1986 Chevy/GMC K-Series & 1987-1991 Chevy/GMC V-Series

With the overwhelming popularity of Chevrolet’s C/K-10 series of trucks, many casual fans don’t know the difference between a C-10 and a K-10. For those who don’t, the “C” prefix designates a 2wd and the “K” prefix designates a 4wd. They may look the same and share many of the same parts, but many parts are not directly swappable. The Borgeson Street & Performance Quick Ratio Chevy K10 Power Steering Box is specifically built for the rugged underpinnings of the K-series 4×4 trucks.
Borgeson Universal now offers an all new modern quick ratio power steering box to replace the Saginaw/Delphi 800 series in 68-86 Chevy K10 trucks. This all new power steering box has a quick 12.7:1 ratio with firm modern steering feel. The Borgeson Street & Performance power steering box will bolt directly to the stock location and fit to the original power steering pitman arms. Trucks switching from manual steering will require a power steering pitman arm. Steering box includes adapters to be able to use either O-ring or flare style hose connections. This new Borgeson steering box uses a ¾”-30 spline input shaft and all pre-1977 trucks will require a new rag joint connector #990012.
All Borgeson power steering boxes are assembled and tested in the USA from globally sourced components and have a 3 year warranty. To learn more, go to Borgeson’s website or call 860-482-8283.
