Rack & Pinion for a link pin front end

[CactusCurmudg'n]

To date my searches for info on this subject have only pulled up some
threads for off road cars. I am looking for info on how this might be done
for a street machine. Custom racks to spec are available from Maval Gear
so that is not a problem. The questions I have are in regard to tie rod
length (I suspect longer is better), location of the rack in relation to the
steering arm tie rod ends (vertical and longitudinal placement). If anyone
has come across such a thread in the past, I would appreciate a pointer
to it.

Thanks
