New 12.1:1 ratio Fox Mustang power steering rack by Flaming River - any thoughts

[Mustang4]

Just saw this article and wondered if anyone has bought one or knows some one who did and what they think of it. Looks like a fix for a better Fox turning ratio.

"Flaming River has built-in up to six inches of travel into its steering racks, which allows for almost a full inch of extra travel over the factory steering rack. “There’s quite a few different options available there,” Jennings explained. “The torsion bar that we use in the valve is the same size that’s used in the SVT Mustang Cobra R, so it’s pretty aggressive for the performance guys.”

I think stock ratio is 15:1 and the only real improvements are stiffer feel in the Cobra or Mach 1 racks.

Checkered Demon on the other board has one of these billet racks in his 377 powered 89 Coupe that he has owned since new. I drove it in the fall, steering felt very quick and good, altho it is a drag race suspension setup with shock valving that feels like they were the OEMs lol.
