If you swap to the EZ or similar system you will add stress to the steering box.
And this boxes aren't really strong.
To swap a 164 power steering box is possible and not done in 1 day!!
You have to weld a lot and modify the frame rail heavily. I did it several times. I got faster now and will still need a few days.
The 164 won't fit into the 140 too. The mounting holes are at a different place. The pitman arm is different too.
I have a 140 LHD and a 164 LHD power steering box in Stock and maybe I'm able to do pics.
The Amazon and P1800 are good to drive if adjusted very well. They are without caster, and you will need caster with power steering. I do modify the front axle heavily too. Gaining camber (-1.0° - 1.5°) and caster ( 2.5° - 4°, depends on condition the car will be used.
Wide tyres and rims are not helpfully at original cars if for your feelings the steering is too heavily.
Good luck, Kay
