Search for Maval. They will convert your current rack.

I've never heard of one (which is not to say it does not exist). The Maval conversion has been around for years and works well (and keeps the stock steering ratio). Why would this not be sufficient?

Hey I believe SummitRacing or Jegs have the complete manual kit for $200 or little more.

You might take a look at Woodward Steering

This is what is used many pro and amateur cars.
I've contemplated doing this, but it would be quite an undertaking to get it right.

On the plus side you get a quick steering ratio with adjustable P/S.
