I will be installing the flaming rive manual rack kit with the quick ratio in my 85 stang. Im in the process of doing a HCI swap so ther is not to much in the engine bay but the block and the stock power rack. ANy tricks to getting the old rack out and the new rack in. Does anyone have a write up on it. Im guessing it will be alot easier to do with not headers or anything else for that matter. Anyone have any tips? How difficult is it?

The hardest part is the steering shaft. The parts fit tight so adjusting the length properly takes a little work, then you have to pull it all apart to dimple it with the drill bit.

My old rack came out easy cuz I've been running it without the pump for a year now, so I just had the two bolts to undo and that was it.
