Hey, check out classicswede on here. As for more lock - I believe it's more of a DIY affair as there isn't much available aftermarket for these cars. I believe extending the lower hub arms (can't think of the name of them) - basically where the hub connects to the track rods - will achieve more lock. Someone did it recently but I can't find the topic.

For parts see my signature.

For more lock the method that has been used is to shorten the arm on the strut to gear up the steering giving more lock. Not a great idea to cut and weld it. There is also a trick to gain just a little bit by removing a shim in the rack. Have a forum search.
