RACK & PINION- POWER OR MANUAL????

[corys69ss]

Looking to purchase a rack. I'm not sure about power or manual. Any pros and cons. Which do you guys prefer? It's going on a 69 Camaro with 245-45-17's. I will be running a 502 aluminum head and hopefully a supercharger. I have never driven a rack F-body, so not sure what to expect. Thanks Cory

With that wide a tire it will be difficult at low speeds. Also factor in you will probably be using a smaller steering wheel. I have a manual rack on one of my cars and it weighs about a 1000lbs less and has 225's because the 245's were just a killer at low speeds.

Cory, I'm running a power rack and 235's up front. Steering is not too "easy" but more firm feeling. Nothing like the stock p/s which I thought was mushy. I don't think I would want the manual if I drove it much. My .02cents worth.
