Stick Shift Nova Column Swap?

Hi folks. I've been vaccilating on swapping a four speed into my Nova. This week at least, I'm really thinking about the fun factor. And for me at least, three pedals does get the job done [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] None-the-less in another thread, I asked the question part way through: Which factory floor shift steering columns interchange with a 1969-1972+ Nova? One of the folks thought a '70 and up Camaro stick shift column is the same. Can someone confirm this? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

My other option is to take the column apart and swap out pieces. I've worked on a couple of late model GM tilt columns in the past and pretty much came to the conclusion it takes a masochist to work on 'em [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] I suspect that the early non-tilts are a wee bit simpler. I'm probably not using the reverse lock out setup (not sure if it can be accomplished anyway with a Hurst shifter &amp; headers). Any thoughts on simply swapping parts in my minty column shift auto column to make a stick shift piece?

Thanks again guys. This is one of the few places I know of where experience and no bull straight talk and advice rules. Thanks in advance! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
