The later box rakes are not specified but apparently, the Box Saloon type has a difference in the lateral angle as well. I fitted a Box saloon type to my chummy and it was a struggle to fit (angle of rake seemed to be more than the original) and the column is displaced towards the centre of the car, not by much but enough to notice (if you're a perfectionist!)
1A6041 is the 41 degree "Sports" box but it's not the Supersports box. That box is 9C102 at 35 or 37 1/2 degrees.
