David,
I'm building an ALGER and have been pondering the steering problem too.
Originaly I chose to use a rack from a Pinto. Some modifications are
needed to install the rack on the cross member. When I started measuring
I relized I would have worse Ackerman Angle than real Tigers. Some
discussion this week on the Tiger List is to use a rack and steering
arms off of an MG Midget. I am still waiting for more specifics. Good
luck.
