Gary, I had thought of several of the things you suggested, but never said
anything because of his location and the fact that he said it is a right hand
drive, so thought maybe a replacement gear box might be a bigger
problem,,,,

One
incentive is the electric gives more MPG so the car companies are jumping on
it.
You can talk to Firm Feel http://www.firmfeel.com/ and Steer
and Gear http://www.steerandgear.com/
to see what they suggest could
improve your car's manual steering.
Flaming River sells a quick
ratio 16:1 new Mopar manual steering box though I can't recall the years it
fits.
You could also consider switching your 330 to traditional power
steering.
Let us know what you discover.
Thanks,
Gary H.
