7.8.2 Any steering wheel may be used other than wooden models. Quick release mechanisms and spacers may be used to move the steering wheel location, but the OEM steering column must be used.

Be careful. I cut the top 5" off of my column in order to add a knuckle for the same reasons. On one hand there was too much slop that I was not willing to deal with and could not seem to add enough bracing to cure. Secondly, someone was all to eager to point out that it was not legal. I did not get it clarified from a director and just replaced it with a new one from ebay with tilt.
