The kit to correct the Ackermann problem with the Tiger was designed and sold
by a CAT member, named, as I recall, Anderson.
I had the opportunity to drive a car equipped with his kit.  The car had
about the same charactoristics as the Alpine   (no scrubbing, reduced turning
radius), and was a very nice job.
Also relying on memory, the steer rack arms were shortened, and an extra
pivot was placed outboard, with a short connecting rod to the steering arm.
Since the installation of the kit was irreversible (you had to put a saw to
the rack arms), someone out there MUST have a car so equipped.

Hope this helps,
Ray
