FYI...in '70-'71 (40 years ago)..when the Motown Missle was constructed the boys at Chrysler placed a r/p in the K-frame where the stabalizer bar would be..used stock spindles,a-rms ect...they simply used a small disc brake and heated/bent the longest LBJ/steering arm they could find...Sox,Hill,Mopar Missle Duster,ect..all did the same thing..worked OK for drag racing...they didn't have to turn much and they kept the suspension so limited in travel that bumpsteer wasn't a big issue.....this isn't exactly new...maybe just forgotten

BINGO!
Maybe the low cost solution to the front steer discussion should be about manufacturing proper steering arms for front steer applications that mate up (bolt on!) to the stock uprights.
If the steering arm places the tie rod end properly, minimal bumpsteer and correct Ackerman for ANY front steer end use is a matter of selecting a rack of the correct length to the inner pivots for the intended chassis, using the correct tie rod length, then precisely placing said steering components in the chassis by modifying the stock K frame or using an outright replacement.
