There's a few ratios available but I found that the quick ratio 2.5 turns of the steering wheel lock to lock made my 68 GMC a little squirrely on the highway. I swapped to standard ratio -app 3.5-3.75 turns lock to lock -and it handles better on the highway.

However, if you do a lot of in town driving then you may want the quicker ratios.
