The 22 Classics we have ordered have had Latham external steering, which is required for the 496 HO motor. A dealer in California had several 22 and Shelby's listed in the classifieds recently, you might check them out.

Have all those 22's with the 496HO you are referring to been paired to anything other than the B1x?

Hydraulic is SOOOO much nicer than the stock mercruiser steering.

(Got a Fountain, had a Howard 23 very similar to a 22 classic, and one-a-these-days gonna-get-me-a 22 classic)
