Al, the main purpose of a steering damper is to help control the unwanted side effects that are generated by the suspension/steering/brake set up. Big caster angles, large negative scrub radius, big and heavy wheels, powerful brakes, high ratio rack, all will generate a situation where the steering is controlled by the wheel and not the driver. A steering damper adds back some contol to the driver but won't stop the tendency for wheel inputs to want to take over.
You know what the set up is so you will have to be the ultimate arbiter. If it were me, I would do without initially and then fit one if it were needed. If its convenient prepare the barcket locations now so that all you have to do is fit the damper rather than fabricate all the brackets. I would use an 02/03 one so as not to over complicate the issue.
