Changing the caster angle is possible , but not without some bravery. You have to bend the tubes of the frame front ever so slightly to get more angle. From memory the top needs to move "back" and the bottom one "forward" . But as you will be aware this is not a job for the faint hearted , a degree or so too many and stand a chance of weakening the frame front.

I think the "dead ahead" feeling is also related to the rack and pinion steering used. My old +4 with a box was great straight ahead, I always felt the R & P on my +8 was more vague, and this feeling was increased when I discarded the damper blades in favour of steering bearings. However there was an upside , my wife was much happier with driving the car as she felt the steering was much "easier" to manage.
