Re: 64 Plymouth Steering Column Length

[Joey <jake4@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I started out with a manual column but I can't see any problems performing
the same modification to a power column. Borgenson has a pretty good support
group, you could either call them or check the website. I would also suggest
checking around your area for a circle track shop as they are good sources
for these. I will send a photo of mine if you want.
