What series are the power steering boxes, '70-'74 for AMX and Javelins? 500,600,700,or 800?

Thanks.

FYI - For a direct bolt in, you'll need a pre 75 box (I believe) which has 4 mounting tabs or ears on it. In 75 they dropped one tab which the AMC's use. Putting in 12:1 firm feel box in my car made it so much nicer to drive that you wouldn't believe it's the same car.

Also, around '75 the fittings went metric.
