I was checking out the Chev's of the 40's catalog and I noticed their front ends.  They say that they are using 70-81 Camaro spindles with a rack and pinion unit.  Anyone have any experience with these or know what rack they are using.  I wanted to convert my Olds to rack and pinion for radiator clearance, but could never find a rack with enough travel.  I am going to check out a friends Camaro to see how long the steering arms are on the spindle and compare them to my "Metric" spindles.  Shorter arms would require less travel on the rack.
