Do not mess with the center cover and the bolts holding it onto the hub. Align your motor to be straight ahead. Lots of ways to do it; just get it as straight as you can. Get under the dash and look for the 4 bolts that attach the rack to the steering shaft. I think they will be in the 7/16 range. back them off to the point that the gear teeth on the steering shaft disengage from the teeth on the rack. Center your steering wheel (It will free wheel at that point). Have someone hold it in position or tie it off in the straight up position, re-tighten the bolts, making sure that the teeth engage. You're good to go.
