[V8Vairs] Rack and Pinion

[Al Kidd]

I think it was about 3 from stop to stop with quick arms.  I run a small
steering wheel so it was a real bear at slow speeds with sticky tires.  When
I went back to regular steering I used quick arms on a stock setup which was
just under 4.  

I couldn't get the bump steer out of the rack so gave up on the idea.
Another motivating factor was loosing about 1 gal out of the gas tank.  At
10mpg I needed all the fuel I could carry.  Not worth the effort in my
opinion unless you will be using a different fuel tank and can spend lots of
time setting it up before its welded in place.

My steering might need some freshening so I thought a rack looked like a way

to tighten things up.  Al, do you know how many turns lock to lock the
Datsun 
rack was?  Also does any one know lock to lock with quick steer arms?
