tilt steering column upgrade?

I bought a 28 inch long one off ebay. It just barely comes through the firewall. I did this because I am putting a magnum , complete with factory f.i. in it. I am also going to try to use the drivers side magnum exhaust manifold. Using the short column may have helped. Most of the columns are chevy based turn signal switches. I just cut the turn signal harness from my stock dodge wiring and connected to a gm rectangular plug that I got from a junk yard. Instant adapter harness.
