REALLY quick update.
The installation is pretty much done. The difference to the handling is what we expected--amazing. There are two niggling problems 1) the steering is binding slightly, it has too much freeplay at dead-ahead, and it's not self-centering, and 2) the brakes need work.
The steering is not down to the geometry or Ted's IFS or the universals. It's either the rack itself (unlikely) or the column internals where they go through the dash.
The brakes. Peter is going to rethink the whole master cylinder set up and also rework the balance bar because there appears there may be too much rear brakes bias at present.
But man, even with the big ole 255 BFGs on the front, the steering (once you get past the initial stickiness) is nicely weighted, and the car just tracks beautifully through corners. Once we get it to behave in a straight line and the brakes start doing their thing, it should be really fun to drive.
