I bought the Flaming River manual rack and pinion steering system so I could lose the weight of the power steering pump and the drag on the engine it causes. It's relatively easy to install and if you get the new steering shaft with it, you have a bulletproof manual steering system which takes only a little more effort to turn than the power system, but it ain't cheap! Course on the strip I ain't making lots of turns either! LOL

Maximum Motorsports panhard bar is the best because of the amount of adjustment and thickness,you can even get it in aluminum.just my opinion Steeda is a good one also.Maximums bar mounts to subframe not to trunk area.
