opinions of badart/dillingerchassis ?

Rack and pinion steering doesn't instantly make your car awesome, there's more to it. Spring rates and sway bars play much more of a role in the car's potential. If you absolutely want rack and pinion later down the road, you can switch over to a pinto set-up (for example) and tubular k-member and work it so it still steers from behind in the factory tie-rod position.

Badart puts his stuff to the test.
