I don't believe they're available off the shelf, but maybe someone can make one as a custom build? I'd probably have a look through something like "Track and Race Cars" or "Racecar engineering" and phone round some advertisers. Maybe even something like "Retro Ford" magazine might have some contacts. Oh and try calling John Sharp Engineering in case he knows of something.

i have been trying to find a quick rack for two years and have not found one yet if i do i can have the bits made up at work but you need to cut and change the angle of the alliminumum cast where the pinon gear is housed because there is one less tooth but that is all i think?
