Hi Phil,
Since you have a 3000-series car, your solution might not work on a 2000-series. I´m sure though, that those guys at Titan can make anything. It´s just a question if it´ll cost everything..
I´ve never liked Jag steering feel either, but I suppose it´s just a matter of reducing the amount of assistance, which shouldn´t be too difficult.
I just found out from an old car magazine a clue about the rack. It might be the same as in an early Jensen Interceptor, and FF.
