That's a mighty fine looking engine you have there Steve. I have a question for you. I thought I remembered that you sold your 1956 Ford truck or am I getting it mixed up with another Truck that you've had in your Shop? Depending on the banjo size they sell banjo to AN maybe that would work for you?  My 1965 mustang has a 289 c4 stock exhaust manifolds. I have a Borgeson power assist kit installed when I still had the engine and trans installed I noticed the drivers side exhaust manifold was almost touching my steering box. I'm now debating having my stock power steering box rebuilt and then buy or fabricate an EPAS unit for my car. I really don't like how close the manifold was. Then again maybe it will get better clearance I noticed that the drivers side motor mount was broken on the rubber maybe my issue? Dunno. A factory rebuilt box would definitely give me the most clearance.

 
I sold my 66 F100 a few years back.  Replaced it with the 56 a few years later.

This picture shows Jose’s 65 fastback borgeson steering box with 289 hipo manifolds.  It has plenty of clearance.

Steve69, that looks real clean, but my alternator is so close I cannot run mine up that high.

I have a short an-6 tube nut coming today. Hopefully I can get a tight enough bend to make it fit. If not, that $94 tube with the banjo fitting will get ordered.
