    doing a 1977 231 EF engine swap in my cj2a and i would like to use the stock exhaust! but, it looks like it wont work with the stock steering box set up (ross steering system). any ideas? does the drivers side and pass. side interchange and have the exhaust run to front of engine? or would i be better off going to bone yard looking for other way of running it. is there a buick engine that has the exhaust going to the front or uses less room on the drivers side? any help would be great.... THX

    Stock CJ-5 V6 ran to passenger side manifolds for this reason.

    Might be a good time to think about a power steering upgrade.
