I need help deciding....

I believe the Monte SS box is 12.7:1 if I'm not mistaken.

So it'd still be a way to upgrade and still get a relatively fresh box then?

I don't know if the Blazer steering box is compatible...it probably is, but I never heard of it being used as a replacement...however, the manual box does fit, which means it most likely can be used.
The Jeep Cherokee, or Grand Cherokee boxes should be pretty easy to find in the junkyard.
Although, there's nothing wrong with getting a refurbished/ rebuilt box.

I actually compared putter dimensions on the box in my old 99 parts blazer to the stock box in my 86 cutlass. Seemed exact interchange tho I never tried fitting PS lines

I think you'll like it. In my opinion it has a better road feel.

Getting lines to work out shouldn't be an issue, but I'd compare pitman arms.

I cant seem to find a pn for my cutlass pitman arm to compare to

Check all your grounds. In the front you'll find one on each side coming from harness and connected to the core support. Sometimes they're not fastened snuggly, or just need to clean up the connections. Also check your bulbs and sockets... I'm sure you did that.

Mike,
You talk about "belly buttons". Why are putting a Chevy engine in your Pontiac? 😛

It is a Corporate GM engine, thank you very much. 😉
