Rack and pinion going together. It's all welded up now. K member is being sent off for powder coating. If anyone wants to convert let me know and I can tell you what you need. The rack is saving a ton of weight off the front of the car.

Couple pics of the 20 gallon fuel cell mounted as well. It is mounted on two 2" wide x 1/4" thick steel straps that is welded to the front and rear of the trunk. There are also braces under the 2" x 1/4" rails for support. The hole for the sump is small and unobtrusive. I'm very happy with how it's coming out.
