Do you have power steering? If not leave the stock one alone. Would be best to ask in the C3 section. This section deals with 53-67 cars.

I did change to a late shark wheel, many years ago, along with the column so I could have tilt/tele adjustment.....but over the last 22 years the entire seating setup has been modified to suit me....

BTW, I have a smaller diameter wheel for sale, if iinterested....
