Default changing steering rack

my cobra has power steering rack but with proCharger its not working now and I need to change to manual rack. How hard would it be to change it out?

Not sure I understand why it won't work with a procharger? Why won't it work? Is there something physically wrong with it or are you simply looking to have better steering response. Eitherway changing out a steering rack isn't hard at all. The hardest part is getting the driverside bolt out! You have to remove the A-arm bolt to do so! It's a 4-5 hour job

because its manual rack and it doesnt work with procharger as procharger is in the way where steering pump used to be and looks like this procharger doesnt support steering pump so I have to switch to manual steering rack.

Isn't there some kinda kit that comes with the procharger, to re-locate the power steering pump?
