I have a wooden dowel between the Vega box and the bottom of the steering column but the angle of column is critical regarding the rearmost spark plug and the header. To answer the thread question, my main goal for the summer is to get that steering set up and wire the roadster and work a summer job to pay for a top in the Fall.

That car went to Montana a couple years ago.... Sold the car, Deuce chassis jig, couple sets of frame rails and a ton of small parts to a guy out there... It had IFS on it anyway so can't help you on the Vega box.... Friend of mine just converted his Vega cross steer to one of the new Uni-racks this winter, looks really nice. I haven't built anything with a straight axle for 20 years or so.... Just one of them IFS snobs, ya know?????
