Has  anyone installed a Grant wheel on a telescopic column?

Thanks,

---------------------------------
I just installed a Sparco race type wheel on my telescopic column and  simply 
countersunk drilled the 6 holes in the center of the Sparco.  No  spacer or 
adapter.  Puts the wheel further away from me - which is what I  wanted.  I had 
to take the turn indicator lever out, put it in my vise and  "gronk" it a 
little bit to clear the back of the steering wheel but it looks  stock now.  I 
didn't want the adapter.

engineering effort to achieve rear negative camber on  solid rear axle housing on 
Penske's TransAm car.
