I backed off the adjustment, and have had about an inch of total play for as long as I can remember. My cars track true, so in a straight line two fingers on the wheel does it with little to no movement.
I've got power R&P in my Mustang; of course it's more precise, and faster, and has a sound system but I always enjoy driving my Healeys more than any other car. If I ever need to replace my steering box, though, I'm getting the DWR box.
