For safety reasons, I would not use the "rag joint repair kit" from Ecklers(or any other supplier). While that type is an easy, quick fix, they are not that reliable in operation.(don't ask...
)
Go with one that is complete with the flange, such as the one Alan provided a LINK for. This type is way mo better, and mooch more safe. Isn't your life, and your 'Vette, worth the few extra $$$?

John,
I just recieved my new coupler/rag joint today. I managed to get it for $88 from Zips (saved $6) & it's a perfect fit.
As I said, I cleaned up the upper flange and bolts and I'm ready to put them in. Fortunately (or not) my column & engine are still out of the car, so I won't have too much trouble putting them in.
Good luck,
Anthony
