I have a problem connecting the two u-joint's on my Unisteer rack and pinion due to the headders (SBC connecting kit).
How will a 3/8" lift on the motor affect the pinion angle?

It will def affect it. Might not cause a problem, depending on your existing angles. I'd shim the trans tailshaft the same amount, that should leave you right where you started in regards to engine/trans angle.

If your engine and trans mounts are 3 feet apart (I'm just guessing, I dunno what your spacing between them is), you will change the angle of your output 0.6 degrees
