If your engine has good manifold vacuum, your vacuum booster pump is in good condition, and the wiper motor is in good repair and properly and periodically lubricated, it should perform very, very well. I know there are lovers of electric conversions but the vacuum systems on both my cars (34 and 56) work well, even in brutally heavy rain.

Perhaps your motor needs lubrication, or service. If the latter, I strongly recommend Ficken Wiper Service. Typical rebuild is in the range of $65 or so last time I inquired. Others on this website have also used Ficken and were very pleased with the results.
