Steering question

My 3rd gen Camaro stocker was probably the 4th one built in the country back in the 80's and mine was the first one with a stick. When I first ran it , it shook hard and it was not wheelstanding. I changed the caster camber settings a few times and nothing helped, the parts in the frontend were new also. I then called FJ Smith who was building a lot of SS 3rd gen cars at that time. He said but a volks bug steering damper and make some brackets and put it on. All his cars had that set up. I did that and it fixed the shake completely. Still have the car, with a volks damper on it. You can get one easy at a parts store and install it yourself with a little fab work.
