I'd like to use a Flaming River Steering column and was wondering about length. A local friend used the Chevette and it appears to be 35" long. If I follow Flaming River and only have 3" protruding from the firewall (As they specify) it would take 2? section lengths and 3 universals?
The history or my car started out in Florida to Maine and now New Hampshire. The body doesn't have the "cut outs" in the door area as all the other Classic Roadsters I've seen. Any idea? The original purchase order is from Dec 1991.
Again great welcoming and appreciate the assistance!  |
Your right about the flaming river column. It sticks out past the fire wall around 3". Thats what I used on mine. We (really just DV
) ended up using 3 U-joints and a heim joint. I thought I had a picture of it completed, but I guess I don't. I'll be at DV place next Saturday and get some good pictures of the steering setup. If you think of anything else, just let me know and I'll shoot photos of that also. As far as the door/body cut outs. Your going to have to get DV to chime in.
Cheers!
