how are you going to avoid bump steer with the sweet rack and pinion? I wanted to run one but they typically only run 18" center to center which is quite a bit shorter than what is stock on that car? I wanted to run one but my center to center (70 mustang) was 24.5" so I need to find another solution. From looking at the pictures, your pivot point on the steering arm is pretty far inward from the pivot point on the intersection between the lower and upper control arm mounts. You may want to weld an extension on the rack to move the pivot point closer to the A-arm mounts. In it's current configuraton, it looks like you are going to have excessive bump steer. Those sweet units are the cats ass though. Nice piece.

The Extreme subframe was designed to use that rack. I’m sure the bumpsteer spec is published somewhere or you could call Speedtech.

Im sure they are right. From the pics it just looks like the tie rod is longer than the instersection between the bottom and top A-arm but maybe it's just the angle I am looking at. Either way, it's a nice setup.

For $75k you can take this Camaro with a Swweet rack and reverse engineer the bump issue right out of that mustang. ;)

Don't think it has to to lie right on the line between pivots. As long as the tie rod is the correct length and angle, it can be shifted inboard or outboard to accommodate outer tie rod position relative to ball joints. This gives ackerman (outboard), or as it appears in this case, anti-ackerman (inboard), which might explain the +20% inside tire grip claim.



This car looks like it's gonna be awesome btw, wish i had 70k burning a hole in my pocket... good luck with the sale.
