Is electric power steering any good on 34 ford Tudor? Mine has rack and pinion and turns pretty heavy. What happens when power is lost? Does it still have manual steering?

I can't say how well it fits or any specifics about installation in a '34. I CAN tell you that if power is lost it just acts like manual steering...no problem.

It will take a little more effort when the power is off, there are gears and motor to turn, I modified a aftermarket electric power steering unit to work on a fancy low speed electric vehicle
