Has anybody needed to change the steeringrack on a 97 Chimaera -- my powersteering pump seal has failed and TVR are not being too forthcoming, as to what it is built / based on.

Many thanks

Steering rack is from a TVR Griffith.
It is a TVR special. Pump is typically Land Rover but depends on whther you have a serp or pre-serp engine. I have heard they charge more for the pump than TVR. Shop around and assume nothing.
