I understand that a lot of manufacturers us a Mustang II system, but they seem to be all 16 inch mount system. I haven't been under the car yet so those are the only measurements I have. There is a number on the rack 35 500 131, can anybody please help.

I believe they used a Mustang II (1974-1978) steering rack. Easy enough to swap out if need be.
