G'Day Tuska, I've got a 351 cleveland without power steering and a 12" steering wheel. The rims are 15" and the rack is a shortened commodore (Holden) I had no problems with heavy steering at all. I am now about to put in an alloy 351 (Dart block) I borrowed some monster scales from work and to my suprise the alloy engine only weighs 100 lb (45kg ) less than the cast iron Cleveland. I doubt ,with the diameter of your rims, that you should have any problems with heavy steering.
