I'm the same way just looking for clan clutter free install
Most of the street rod guys I know have MII fronts wih manual racks. They swear by them. They say the ratio in the rack is different than in a power ack. My friend's dad has a 40 Chevy with a blown 540 and it has a manual rack. It turns with ease at a stand still. So I may go manual with my 40 ford this time around.
