Let me clarify my question. I plan on replacing my steering rack with a new unit upon reassembly, and am interested in hearing the opinions of the brain trust (OK, I'm giving you guys a LOT of leeway using that description ) on whether I should go with a manual rack or power.

Anyway, this whole process has been nothing but fun so far. Or not. Right now the car is best described as a "non-rolling shell". _Everything_ has been stripped off except for some of the glass, and I can't imagine that putting her back together with mostly clean, new parts could possibly be any worse than taking off all of the worn out, stripped, greasy and leaking parts was. Although it will certainly be more time consuming in some respects.

Thanks,
Mike
