manual steering options

im going to have a umi k member, and im was just wondering what my options are to go with manual steering. i dont wanna just ditch the pump cause ive heard its hard to turn with 275s up front. so who all makes racks that would fit my k member? also with a manual rack, how hard will it be to turn the 275s? alot eaiser than the power rack with no pump? i want to reduce weight up front and clean up the bay-less pullies, and no resivor for fluid. thanks for the help guys!

If "and not resivor for fluid" means you want to eliminate the coolant reservoir, you can't. Radiator will not function properly without the reservoir, and NHRA requires an overflow system. You could opt for something lighter, but you can't eliminate it.
