Default Which rag joint for close ratio

I'm converting the steering box in my '71 Nova for a late (metric) close ratio steering box from a Z28 Camaro. Have the O-Ring adapters to -6 AN fittings but i need a conversion rag joint. Where can i get one? I know i've seen them from some vendor, but can't remember where....

There are a number of websites that talk about the swap to the IROC steering box and what year vehicals will have the right joint for our application. I looked them up and ended up buying one to an order with summit.

Thats listed for 69 to 81 Vette. You say it will fit the IROC steering box? It's a good deal for 48 bucks. I contacted Lee too, waiting for reply. Thanks!

whoa.... I missed replying on this one by a few weeks. I'm pretty sure it bolts right up to the steering box as thats the part i bolted up to mine. If you go to the manufactures website it lists a group of vehicals and years for fitment.

What are a few weeks compared to the time it takes for a buildup of a car...
Thanks for the reply! I'll go with the Summit part as Lee seems to be not interested in selling rag joints....
