What is the part number of that bracket from Flaming River?

I'm going to need that part soon too.

Don't feel bad, I'm in the same situation as you. I have one of those brackets that the builder who did much of the work on my car sent me home with. Problem is, he didn't even buy / sell me the bracket with the correct diameter hole (was 1 3/4" should have been 2" for the 2" column), let alone one that would properly work even if it was the correct size hole.

The part number they gave me is FR20300. If you go on Summit, they have a proper picture of the new bracket. I saw an install in one of the magazines using the bracket. Seems like it works properly.

First gen Camaros and 68-72 Novas are the same. The billet mount and column looks exacly like what I put in my 69 Camaro. I would not think that you need to be concerned with the 3 mounting point.

Glad they have the bracket to get you going.

Do you have any pics of how you mounted yours?
