[V8] 1990 V8 New Rack Install & 1 IMPORTANT Question

[Campozano, Robert]

No more puddle!!!  I am happy since this guy I found seems to have done
a good job with the rack.  I have to go back today so he can straighten
out the steering wheel since it is a bit off to the right.  He said it
would take 10 minutes to do.  He did find the tie rod bolts to be very
loose on the car so he said he went ahead and tightened everything up.
Car does feel a bit more solid.

Here's the question:  Is there any kind of insulation that is removed
when the rack is done?  I could swear I am hearing more engine and
tranny noise (even a possible vacuum leak) then before therefore the
cabin is not as quiet.  I am going to see the mechanic in about 2-3
hours so can anyone give me some ideas?  If he forgot to install
something back or got lazy I would really like to know.

Happy about the non-leaking rack, a bit uneasy as to the engine and
tranny noise in the cabin.
