I know the early MGB's had 2.9 turns lock-to-lock & the later rubber ones had 3.5 turns
...but, somewhere in the recesses of my mind I think I've heard that there was a short time when getting a steering rack with 2.4 turns was possible....I've got to of the early racks laying on the floor of my garage....one is 2.9 (just turned it & counted) but the other appears to be less...they both have all the same numbers except 1 place on the housing there are stmped numbers that are different (this is the only rack with the different numbers)
...here's my dumb, technical question: how can I tell if I've got a rack with shorter turning radius?
