Manual steering conversion
Joe,give Steer & Gear a call at 800-253-4327.They make a steering adapter for about $105.00 that will enable you to use your power steering column and avoid all of that work with a simple bolt on piece.I just made the conversion on my b-body and had no problems mating it to the manual box I got at a swap meet.

Joe all you really need is the lower section of the steering columns as the upper part never changed from autos to manuals. The lower bar is longer for manuals although they will work as I did on mine stupidly for years it is hanging by a thread and very little catch. What we have done is cut and welded a new rod into the shaft and that works good.

Firm Feel also has an adapter. Not sure on the price though.
