I have a question. I thought I remembered a build, or a thread that I cannot seem to find where the subject of Mustang II racks came up. The obvious issue was that a Mustang II rack is set for a lower pressure and flow than any of the LS series pumps.

But, someone had found a similar rack that was compatible with the LS series pump. I don't remember if it was a T-Bird rack, or something else.

I know you can use shims and restrictors, but I thought there were even issues with this that I had read, and by making a simple swap you solved all your issues, but it seemed like most folks were not aware of this rack.

We have the same problems with Jag steering racks. I used a DSE restrictor in
my PS II pump for the Vintage Air Front Runner assembly. Works great....

84-86 T-Bird rack......runs at about 2 gpm and 1100 PSI and its three turns lock to lock.....Depending upon which pump you have.....but....in my set-up (LS-GTO PUMP)
it took all the Twitchyness out of the car and made all the difference in the world in driveability (1937 Ford street rod)


Heres a link to the build and all the info is toward the end Page 26
