Dave,
the other solution, but possibly more costly, is to buy an Aero based Plus 8, Power Steering as standard.

Hmmm, press-ups, pull-ups and a Bullworker (anyone remember them?) The only time I tried a Bullworker type of chest expander....I trapped a nipple. Never been the same since! Who's nipple did you trap ?

Fitting electric assisted steering is not a difficult task but you do need to know what your doing. Its infinitely easier than fitting a hydraulic system.

I don't know what make MMC used in the ARP4, but it really is lovely to use both at speed and when parking, in fact it is so nice I have replaced the 14" wheel with a smaller 13" one with no ill effects, and it makes getting in and out easier too.
Give them a ring [do not write or email, you will never get an answer], and ask if it is available as an after market fitment on your car.

Jays, you still haven't got the message! As a punishment you must write out 1000 times, using a modern ball point pen: "The Aero Plus 8 is made by Morgan so it is a real Morgan" Submit to Aeroman, who is always willing to move on to his "Plan B"... There, that wasn't so bad was it?

The last real Morgan was, of course, the flat rad, but perhaps we might just allow the pre-superform trads. Modern Morgans are all just replicas. They must be because at least once a month some knowledgeable person tells me so! You know how it goes: KP: "Lovely old car." (50% say MG, 49% don't have a clue, and 1% recognise it as a Morgan) Me: "Actually it's not so old. 2012." (It's written on the plate for all to see) KP turns to friend: "It's a replica" Me: "Well no. We picked it up at the factory and have it serviced by the dealer in Milan. They still make them and the company is still owned by the Morgan family" KP, walking away says to friend:" Yes. As I thought, it is a replica." As my father in law used to say "There is no disease worse than stupidity and you can never cure it"
