I have been working on ol rufus and laid out the omni rack every thing looks ok. When you posted a picture of your tie rod modification is that a solid stock drilled out to to fit both the rack and the old dodge tie rods? I could not locate any discussion on the tie rod ends. thanks for the help.

Good to hear, yes I had a machine shop drill out solid stock, think it was around 1 1/4”, 1/2 way for inner tie rod tap size and 1/2 way for outer. Only thing I would change is you should have a jam nut against both ends, I only did the inner side because the outer was very very tight to get on anyway.
i also used two of the same r/h thread outlets, vs original uses one r/h and one l/h

Thanks heading to the metal shop and have that done as well as putting 90 on the 1/4" plate. The slant six fit real well removed it to do this work and hook up the brakes. I finely see some light at the end of this build.

It has been a long summer I was wondering how your power rack worked out. Did you have any hitting problems with the springs on the power rack? Are you happy with how your plan worked? I wanted to put one on my truck but thought i would wait and see if you still like that setup. I have just put my slant six in with the 903 the rear end is next then the power steering. It has been a lot of work but not bad at all looks good in there. Thanks stay warm up there.Later on GT

Works fantastic, but mine has been in for about 3 or 4 years now. If you build everything right and get the right rack you should have no rubbing issues, however with a different engine that would be based on where the sump in your oil pan is.

It is all open the sump is over the axel far enough to be ok mostly in the center not on either end. The trick is motor mounts and reworking the arch in the rear cross member behind the cab for the 903 tail shaft. Running out of summer well i do not need to tell you. thanks for the advice later GT
