Or you could fit a manual steering box in one of three ratios.
I tried one of those Firm Feel power steering boxes but I wasn't impressed. Maybe mine was just a bad one. I have heard their quality control can sometimes go a bit astray.

Anybody got a price for the manual streering box to compare

You could always look up Firm Feels site at http://www.firmfeel.com/default.htm
But they charge about $300 for a power steering box with a $175 core charge so Wil's price is not bad.
Manual boxes are priced at around $275 for a stock 24:1 ratio, $375 for a 20:1 ratio like mine, and $475 for the super fast 16:1 ratio.
The higher the ratio the harder it is to turn the wheel but you have to turn it less. My 20:1 is about 4.5 turns lock to lock.
