I was wondering, I have read that you can use the EP3 rack and pinion when doing the kswap for the EM2, D17 to K20/24 but wanted to know if i could be able to use the SI rack and pinion with the D17 engine still inside of the engine bay.. Ive looked for an answer but most are doing the kseries swap.

It should be possible.

But I have no idea of the other elements of that swap like if the lines bolt up or if you'd need an extension.
