Put column in, bled steering out turning side to side with wheels off ground, wheels back on ground steering has nice feel and zero noise.
The steering column plate to firewall, that plate appears to be raised now and bolt holes won't line up? Gonna loosen upper column mount bolts up wiggle it around see if I can get plate to line up. But its looking like those plate holes need to be egged out to me?
But column angle to steering box seems to be pretty good.
Nothing is leaking.
With engine running I sat in car on the floor, held onto steering wheel, pushed in clutch, and was able to shift through gears no grinding at all and smooth shifting. Put in first let clutch out a little car started to move. So its looking like clutch is working correctly.
