subaru steering shaft clearance

[Grog]

First, i did search.

 

Its been a few years, but something I recall reading somewhere suggested that the subaru steering shaft assembly can be rotated up to 180 degrees. Unfortunately, I cannot recall where I read that - and more importantly - unsure if it is true. I remved the stock crossmember mounts for my Pontiac build and fabricated mount brackets for this swap. I can make the subaru conversion work if the headstock can be repositioned. Can someone confirm  if the headstock can be repositioned, and how is this done correctly?

You unbolt the servo head from the rack, turn it 180 degrees, and bolt it back into place. Done. (Assuming you're talking about the Subaru Legacy power steering rack conversion)

I am hoping we are talking about the same thing. In the post started by 78zlt1 http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/46504-lt1-and-subaru-rack/, in the first set of pictures posted he indicated rotating the servo head 70 degrees to position it. Although it is not necessary to do this using the JTR mounts for a chevy, the pontiac motor swap requires this type of angle to clear the mounts. I don't know if this was just rotating the entire rack to gain that angle, or if the servo can be rotated independently. If I am way off in my thinking, let me know. Otherwise, I need to re-think this swap.
