Pete, I've got a similar problem that I'm hoping you can help me with. I have a 65 Dart Gt convertible with a 273. I installed a Borgeson power steering box and TTI long tube headers. No problem with clearance there. But, when I try to install the universal joint coupling the piece that connects to the column hits one of the header tubes and I can't get it to angle up because of that. Any suggestions? Thank you!
