There is significant amounts of weight to be saved, but just a cursory look leads me to believe there will be a lot of bumpsteer with the width of those racks.

A racing rack and pinion could get you correct width, but there's a lot of fabrication involved in something like that too.

I don't know who spohn uses for their rack and pinion, the one I have is from Unisteer, they shorten the rack for our Camaro's. If you are getting a k-Member at the same time you can get the rack mounts put on it, you will need a bump steer kit and will have to get a steering shaft. If you go to PA racing, they have a nice steering shaft kit for our cars.
Was not compilcated to do, could easily be done in a day, that is how long it took me
