To my knowledge the car has never had a rack done in it . So yesterday I go to put the rack in and new steering shaft. I can’t get the splines to slide on only to realize the splines look like
. Tried to clean them up with a wire brush to no avail .
Needs a driver side tie rod anyway. So I ordered a new 2.5 turn rack for it . After getting frustrated with the wiring in the fender I finally decided to ditch the stupid ford relay and just put a junction there . Use a 30 amp relay to trigger the sol on the starter and be done with it . Got the msd box mounted to the Scott rod panel as well
Still have to zip tie all the wiring neat and arrange it all . It’s just kind of up there to make sure it all fits . Test fitted the fender liner too and were all good there. The 2/0 wire I used should handle whatever I throw in the car . I have it fed through the fire wall where the cruise crontrol stuff used to come through the grommet . I like the idea of the power cable in the car rather then under it .
Spoke to my engine builder Tuesday . Heads are on and he was checking pushrods and it turns out I needed .200 longer pushrods . No big deal . So we should be on for Saturday to pick it up .
