Any questions feel free to ask!
Thanks for looking.

This is exactly the unit I used, except I stuffed it under the stock dash and had to do a lot of creative stuff to make it fit. It works pretty darn well, but my steering shaft has too many joints with the way I had to put it in so it's a little more numb than I'd like.

I am glad it is working well for you!  I only added a saturn joint at the output side to join into the stock steering shaft.  I know it should be a bit numb feeling because of the torsion bar in the unit itself to measure load and calculate assist levels. 

Can you post a link to the ebay controller? Man, it looks like you can do this cheap!

It seems like he has changed seller names.  The unit itself has been available for years.  I will update here after I use the car and get a feel for it. 

That looks like a pretty compact unit.  I might pick up one of those to see if I can fit it into my Pro-Challenge car.
Getting older, and P/S would be a nice addition.

It is pretty small.  My goal was to make the car more consistent to drive.  When I took the SLA off the front and went back to a strut, I put the car back to slightly more than stock caster.  The steering effort greatly increased with my manual converted 15.5:1 rack.  If you need any dimensions let me know, I can post them up here.

Here is the fox T5 compared to the TKX.  it is slightly different but still fits in the trans tunnel just fine.  I was even able to reuse the existing cross member I had made for the T5. 

I finally am replacing the old T5 I have been running forever.  I have a TKX to replace it.  It fits in the car almost the same as the T5 and I am able to use the same bellhousing, quicktime 6037, just needing to change the clutch discs and slip yoke on the trans.  The rest fits right up.

The T5 I have been running has a steel front bearing retainer, steel cluster support, Astro Road Race 5th gear, Pro 5.0 shifter and 5speeds.com peel shims.  It weighs 77 lbs with no fluid.  The TKX out of the box with the stock shifter weighs 97 lbs.  So hopefully it is a worth while upgrade.

Great videos! I think that is my friend Terry Mathis in the red vette that was on pole. If it was I think he set a new track record that weekend. He has a fortune in that car and is quite a driver too. Your car is really looking great as well.

It was Terry.  I have raced with him a lot the past few years with my old corvette.  He was on a mission to set a lap record and win an overall.  He accomplished both. 

So I ran at Daytona about 2 weekends ago.  It was good to get this back on track.  Broke a part in the T5, which is typical for me lol.  Broke a pin off the 5th gear selector rod.

Good thing I am only 30 minutes from Daytona.  I was able to get it out, get parts and get it fixed but I still missed the race on Saturday by 15 minutes or so.  I did get both races in on Sunday.  Car ran well and averaged 6.3 MPG's on the high banks!
