605 Box to CPP 500

[fiftysix chevy]

After twelve years of using a 605 steering box, I plan on switching to a CPP 500 box, I have two questions.

Are the hose ends the same at the box between these two boxes? I understand that the 500 uses inverted flare fittings, but I don't remember what the 605 has.

From a labor standpoint and since I'm sitting on my couch thinking through this, can the boxes be removed / installed from underneath the car?

Thanks,
Jim

I used 67 Camaro PS hoses from NAPA on my 56 with a 500 box. As far as hoses on the 605 they are bisexual, they go both ways, inverted flair or Metric O ring.

Thanks Markm!
Are we allowed to say things like that here?

We don't have to contend with Otis and his crew here.

That's right, good point!
