The end of the engine is 200mm (8'') from the center of the column.
I'm not going to do this project immediately, before I have to finish reinstalling the engine in the car after repairing the lifter breakage and as I took the opportunity to replace the air conditioning compressor with a Sanden, I'm spending time with the adjustments of the support, there is very little space.
Afterwards I will have to take the car back to my body shop so that he can redo the paint that he missed the first time, so I won't take care of the EPS before spring or early summer but I'm gathering the elements when I find cheap ones on Ebay.
I found a Capri steering column in France at less than 30€ including postage, I still have to buy an ECU.
