Is there any difference in the Power Steering Box's XD-XF? - there seems to be a change in turning circle but that looks like geometry.

Whats the answer here?

They are interchangeable with earlier Falcons too - I have an XF box in my XB, bolted up with no mods.

No - Application is Injected 5.0 from NC. Ive two options - change the pump as per ultimate power steering (http://www.ultimatepowersteering.com.au ... technical/) or to just replace the C2. Either way, the XE v8 lines will work.
Id love the Saginaw pump however Im just not sure about the conversion cost.

The XF Pump - is that a reliability call (was when I had my XD), or is it a pressure call?

Didn't realize you where talking injected windsor. I have fixed the P/S on my 5lt EF. I currently working on a kit. I fitted a commodore pump with a remote reservoir mounted like an AU. Will post some pics later today when the camera returns. PM to know more .Regards TPVM.
