I feel fortunate to have them.
I do wonder about aftermarket tie rod ends that might allow me to fit them inside an 18" barrel...hmmm....But I do prefer 17's and some sidewall at Road America. Technology improves and offers alternatives.
By altering the steering arm, you mess with the angle of the tie rods. Then you could alter the drag link to compensate, but.....then I'd get lost and over my head. Here is a crude drawing of the front steer.

shorter/repositioned steering arm would mean more affordable rack and pinion options. that would be the reason for an option for the redesigned arm for me.
Sounds like you made your bird a hell of a GT car.
