non ps steering knucles and steering racks
I already have a manual steering rack because my PS one was screwed up and I got this one for 20 bucks, just to fix it. But not my question is if I put non power steering knuckles on my car with it give it more angle since they are longer? Or will non ps knuckles just make it turn faster, and easier to turn but give no more angle. Or should I just leave the GTS steering knuckles with the non ps rack?

This is kind of confusing to me.

Hi,
the power steering knuckles with non PS rack give you more angle and also quicker steering. I am driving it this way.

Do you maybe have some parts left of the PS?

No I don't have the power steering rack any more, the teeth in it was messed up bad though, so parts from it may not have been usable.

ok well I don't need to get the non ps knuckles... I already pulled the control arms off from the non ps car at the junkyard but I didn't have anything to separate the knuckle and the arm.

Thanks! saves me time.

But you can get more angle from spacers with the stock tie rods?

It´s better to use the tie rods from the PS, cause you really have mor angle. I want to build in a PS rack, cause at narrow corners on rallys it´s really hard to turn with short steering and slicks. I already have a rack, but to make it fit on the non PS steering column I would need the joint of the PS rack. So I thought you maybe would have it, cause it´s damn expensive to buy a new one...
