Default Power steering flow valves

From researching here on the forum, I have noticed several members who have had issues with quick, twitchy, steering after installing a R/P set up, myself included. Did some research today and found this flow control that replaces to stock flow control. This reduces the flow down to 2 gpm. It is recommended for GM style pumps and mustang II R/Ps but may work for or issue as well.
If you use the one from Speedway, and you are using the inverted flare p/s lines you will also have to use the adaptor 91032921.
Jegs also supply the same thing but you do not need the adaptor, it is suited for the inverted flare lines.
If any of our venders here on the forum supply this type of flow control please let us know. Would much rather purchase from a supporting vendor.
What do u guys thing, would this work on a steeroids, Flaming River or even a home built R/P that may have light steering feel or twitchy steering.

Default Smaller is better in this case.

If the hole in the discharge fitting is 0.1144 inch diameter you will get flow at 2.0 GPM.

What is the size of the hole in the discharge fitting on the car now and what is the diameter of the discharge fitting you want to buy?
