The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The HiPo Shop 56 Steering Column w/Camaro Clip?

I recently bought my 56 with a camaro clip. It is an unfinished project that was running , but PO removed engine. The steering column is out of the same Z28, but is non-tilt and floor shift. I'd like to install a column shift, tilt column. Can anyone suggest a replacement? I'm looking for something I can find at a local wrecking yard, not an Ididit or Flaming River. Thanks.

I used a tilt column from a 90 or up Chevy truck. Had to fab a mounting bracket for the floor but nothing too hard. The S10 columns should also work. Get the steering shaft that connects the column to the steering box also. You may be able to use it also.

Did some measuring today. The Camaro shaft appears to be 33" long. It has a 1" splined shaft end that connects to an intermediate shaft. So I need a column that is column shift 1" splined, 32-34". Any suggestions?

Or you can just go buy a Ididit steering column with tilt and everything new without the hassles. I put one in my 57 fairly easy. They come chrome or paintable.
