85 Steering Rack replacement
Corvette lovers!
Just a quick question about the steering rack replacement. I am rebuilding my entire suspension and was wondering if I could put in the "sport" steering rack that is available for the vehicle at Pep Girls or Kragen. Is this part of the z51 package? Is there anything different or that I need to know about changing it?
Thanks
Richard

It is the Z51 steering rack. The Z51 option had a quicker steering ratio than the standard steering. I replaced my standard, with a standard. If you want quicker steering, go for it. I'm pretty sure they don't "ding" you for the up grade on the core return, like they would if you tried to give them a 283 engine core for a rebuilt 350.
