I'm looking forward to hearing your reviews on the rack and pinion. I'm on the fence with one in my car. They seem to have mixed reviews for x-frame chevys.
Thanks everyone for taking a look at my build and taking the time to comment. It really is encouraging!!

My rockers are perfect, only thing this car needs is floors. and the outer lower corners of the rear doors have spots.

The rack kit looks like very high quality. I could not go wrong with it because all of my steering system was trash, and i had no pump hoses etc. I also did not want to buy a new radiator to clear the bigger p/s box. I also got summit to price match and i think i only paid $1050 for the whole kit. The only thing it does not included is a belt and fluid!

I will update more on the rack kit after its installed.
