Post Steering quiestion

I am taking sugestions on what to do with my 68 power steering since I have it out. Is there a steering box from another car that I can replace mine with that has a better ratio or can someone recommend an aftermarket one???

Many people will say to bolt in a 3rd generation box. This box has metric hose fittings. Adapters can be bought from Lee mfg. Steering coupler must also be changed. The internal steering stops in this box are different also. The best scenario is to put the internals of the newer box into an older box and you keep your hoses and original stops. I installed a 12:1 AGR box in my Camaro, but the steering was to quick - so AGR changed it to a 16:1 variable ratio, that is perfect.
