Early Fox body Mustangs had manual racks, However they are a bit hard to find these days. Even the reman sites list them as out of stock.
Don’t know, don’t care. I can tell you the 4 flaming river racks I’ve used have all been great. Plus they can rebuild them if you opt to.
Sure beats trying to track down a 79 fox body steering rack.
The odds of you getting an OEM manual rack is pretty slim other than finding a reman.
Definitely look into the tie rod ends and the steering column input shaft.

You have options
I used to overhaul those power racks
You could pull the sector shaft out and remove the power piston seal and o ring rendering it basically a manual rack
That combined with connecting the input and output lines prevents contamination.
That way you have a stronger? rack IMO
