Re: 63-87 rack and pinion

I used the No Limit rack with a LM7 (genIII engine) in my son's 82. I built my own engine mounts to set it back and the bottom of the LSA oil pan about 1/4" higher than the bottom of the front crossmember. I did not do a section of the crossmember, but raised it in the frame 1.5". I had to use 3 u-joints in the steering shaft with a support bearing, but it all worked really well.
