Looks like the rack out of an '88-'94 Chevy Cavalier to me. Not a perfect match, but close enough to me make me think it very well could be.

The part bolted to the rack with the inner tie rod ends is new, though, no idea if that came from something else or is custom. The Cavalier used two really long tie rods that bolted direct to the rack where the stand off is bolted now.

Maybe standard rack and pinion inner tie rod ends could be screwed into a machined rod to make something similar.

Just some observations.

How about closer to home. Looks like the variable assist unit from a 1999-2004 Chrysler 300M.

Yes, some GM cars have similar "center take off" steering racks.

just a thought, can you run c-channel in the front part of the k frame, mount the rack there, and flip the ball joints side to side so the tie rod mounts are facing forward? might have an issue getting the steering shaft all the way up there, but it might work.
