Flaming  River link to the Corvair steering box:

All new steering box  manufactured from steel for strength with quick ratio 
(3 1/2 turns  lock-to-lock) for Corvair and autocross applications. Heavy 
duty internal  needle bearing design for longer life and smoother  
performance.

Don't forget the shaft kit!!

Also don't forget  that it requires a flat to be cut to fit !

Also my box is 4 turns  (16:1), not 3 1/2 (14:1) ?

Turns - lock to lock - has to be defined. Most people define it  installed, 
in the car. The steering arm contact points are the limiting factors,  not 
the box travel. Uninstalled, the box travels further. Also, the flaming  
River box turns the pitman arm tip a greater distance (than the stock box),  
though the steering arms, again, are the limiting factor when installed.
