If you rotate the control valve, looks identical. You better save those racks.

Looks like the Jensen Inteceptor used a rack like the Stags

Many cars of the era used racks made by the same company - Alford & Adler - therefore some parts may be the same or look similar. I would be extremely surprised if that one fitted a Stag, or was calibrated to suit, as the Interceptor is much heavier. The Interceptor power steering pump also looks similar to the Stag one, as does that fitted to many other British and American cars of the era.Dave

I remember an old Clarkson era Top Gear episode about resto-mod Interceptors. In which he explained the history of the car.
It was not uncommon, reportedly, for them to run out of what they 'should' be using then wander off to the nearby plant and just bring back something that looked right. Then make it fit.
And that was a car that was meant to compete with the finest of GTs !
