300zx rack and pinion with sbc swap


Recommended Posts

Big question. What are people doin about steering issues? When installing a sbc into a 1986 300zx are or is anyone using the stock power steering rack? Are you converting the pump to run on theblock?

 

Seems simple right? Heres my proplem, i have a 86 300zx and ive installed

a 355 sbc supercharged i have a bds blower on it and the blower belt is

3 inches wide i can not run a ps pump or anything other then a alternator on my pully. My clearence is very small

I want to install a manuel rack into this car but i am having trouble finding a sutiable fit? Now ive looked into summit at thier universal manuel racks

but those are for mustangs or cameros or other american makes. Ive also looked into the company Flaming river. I work at a nissan dealership and discovered that a 93 sentra i think the 1.6 or 1.8 not sure comes with a manuel rack. I want to put that in the car but am not sure if the width is right.

Has anyone come across this issue?

Is there a car such as they 280 or 240 z's with manuel racks

Any help would be greatly appreciated
