'67 Dart drag car with a rack and pinion swap needs some geometry help

View attachment 1715437295The biggest issue with this is it is setup for a 5/8" rod end.
You would need to find a GM (80 malibu) inner tie rod (LH thread) and the correct length swedge tube .. Look in speedway motors oval track section.

Something like this gets sketchy as the placement of the rod end moves away from the steering arm. Adding a second plate to put the stud in double-shear would be a good idea.

See the diagram below. The 'race bump-steer kit' shows an added flange to the lower right of the tie-rod. This helps support the stud that the tie-rod is pulling on so that it doesn't twist and eventually break.
