More Posted: 251103 MGV8 steering column cowls compared The MGBGTV8 steering column cowl has a vertical split line (with right & left sections) whereas the MGRV8 cowl has a horizontal split line (with upper & lower sections). In a V8BB thread on fitting an EZ power steering upgrade to an RV8, Martin Selwyn mentioned that he found it was a relatively easy kit to fit and it has made a vast difference when driving in town and parking. The only problem he found was the cowl did not quite fit properly but he has noticed that even some RV8s without power steering have cowls that do not fit properly. Paul Atkinson responded that when the EZ power steering was fitted to his RV8 by Steve Newton he distinctly remembers Steve making careful alterations to the internal parts of the cowl in order to make it a good fit after the installation. Paul later removed his cowl and posted a set of photos on the V8BB thread showing the careful alterations that were made to the internal parts of the cowl in order to make it a good fit.
