I have a stock manual rack in my 82 Capri. It probably is older than the car.
I works fine. It's tough at a stand-still, but once rolling it's a piece of cake. Plus you get better road feel, lighter, no pump to drive, no fluid leaks, cleaner engine bay.
IMA, the flaming probably has a better gear ratio then stock.
Go for it.
