Cool, the site is up and running!

Thanks Brian, yea the body is mounted to the frame. I'll try a post some pics, maybe you can see a problem. Rod Bod gave me some dimensions where they mount the steering column and am trying to follow they're advise, but can't seem to make that work. I guess what I'm wondering if I'm using the correct headers for the application. I appreciate your time to answer my questions, sorry for the delay in responding.

Brian,

Here's a picture showing where Rod Bod locates the steering column thru the firewall.

Brian,

Another pic of steering shaft thru firewall. I don't know if frame is pinched and stretched in this picture.
