Default Faster Steering - Options?

I have the standard manual rack in the car. I have found that the steering to to slow for autocross events.

1) Is there a faster manual rack that will bolt into a Classic Roadsters Cobra? If so, what is the steering effort like. I find the current setup to be OK but not great when turning aound in my driveway, etc, and very acceptable when on the road.

2) If no faster manual rack - then what are my options for a power steering setup with faster rack?

3) Has anyone tried one of those in-line "Steering Quikener" units? Looks like some fab work would be needed to mount on eof those.

Try an early Mustang ll power steering unit. 3.5 turns lock to lock and with a Heidt's adjustable relief valve on it you can dial the steering force to exactly what you want. I just finished installing this on mine and what a difference!!!!!!! Took most of one day to do the complete job. Email if you need specs or photos...
