eventually I plan on turboing it, but now im trying to figure out how to get the motor in and the car mobile. Planning on using the stock a arms for now but with the aje k member im not quite sure what manual rack and style to go with. aje sells a kit with manual rack, bump steer kit and steering shaft for 480 or so but I don't know if that rack is any good or worth it. as far as the tranny crossmember goes im not sure what tranny im using yet. the 4.8 is already hooked to a 2wd 4l80 but I may go th400

Default manual rack and steering shaft.

I'm running the flaming river std ratio manual rack on my aje k member. I bought it as a kit, so it also came with their steering shaft. Worked well.

I've had the FR quick ratio rack for about 15 yrs and have always liked it.
