Quote: Ok. I looked at it and looked at it measured and measured. I moved the engine up about .750 and the rack down about .625 and I was able to move the rack back. Now it is straight across with the steering arms and level with the steering arms. Now I have to mock the rest of it up and see if it works.
The inner tie rods are 2" below the LCA pivot point but they are dead on in line
You would be better off to move the rack forward and move it up the 2". With the rack 2" lower as you go into jounce it will make you go toe out. If the tie rods angle rearward its not TOO bad as long as you can get a good turning radius, the one thing that occurs is the 2 tires turn at a different rate, not all that bad on a drag car but would wear tires on a street car. But on a drag car as soon as you let off the gas on the top end the car noses over and the toe would go outward... not good. Since your moving the steering arm, lower it, more to match up with the rack EDIT I just re read your post and see you said LCA pivot, the closer you get to that pivot point the less toe change you see... or you make the tie rod the same length as the LCA and move the inner tie rod pivot but you will see a slight different radius between the two
