Found a column for power steering with 3-speed column shifter. Looks like she'll be a 302 with a three on the tree! I don't know why but I really like the three speed on the column I guess it's quaint and adds a certain level of anti-theft protection these days LOL

The only thing I'm worried about is after replacing the pinion seal, no clue if I have the load set right

I believe the bell housing from the 360 will bolt to the 302. The only thing you will need is a flywheel for the 302.

360 is an FE pattern. Different from 302.

Well I got a manual shift/ power steering column in the mail over christmas! From a dent-side so I'll have to change the wiring a bit.

Unfortunately not. The only progress I've made on it since the last pics a couple pages back is to collect up more parts.. Life gets in the way....

Been there doing that now. So do you have access to the dent you got the column from still? You may want to get other parts for the steering?
