Question Steering gear box question

The steering gear box that's currently on the car is leaking at the input shaft. I ordered a rebuilt Cardone 276550 from Amazon on Friday. It showed up today and it's a 14.4 ratio box, not 12.7 that I wanted. I'd heard it was a crap shoot as to what ratio you actually receive with these rebuilt boxes.

Is 12.7 going to make that much difference over a 14.4 box? I will autocross the car and I'd like to kill two birds with one stone if I swap boxes- fix the leak and quicken the steering. But, if it's not that much different I may settle.

Thoughts?

Daniel
