I run a P/S system with a Sweet rack. Works great, like you bad shoulder from baseball. No 90 mph any more. Lucky if I can thrown it 20'. Don't raise arm over head either. Anyway If you want more info, goggle it or I will get the people to talk to you. It's a bolt in system. The brakes will put you through the windshield in the beginning. You don't need a heavy foot. 1,400 -2,000 psi of pressure the system uses and this make the brakes stop quick. You might need a pedal stop under the dash. The pedal travel is only about 2". Just a thought. You built a car the way you need it to address you needs. It's just as fast as and 5 or 6 speed. I do have a ashtray in my car, and the other half quit smoking. Rick L.

Rick, this sounds great and I will surely consider what you are recommending when I finally get my Cobra back. I'm guessing you have been down the path of the torn rotor cuff, not pleasant and never quite really heals. When I was test driving the SPF Cobra at Hillbank and turned into the parking space the shoulder rotor cuff popped, thus the power stearing option was first thing I asked for. Then the power breaks.
