Bought their part number: NPS 7215, P/S Control Valve Ball Stud Mounting Kit and found that it isn't the correct one. The stud included in the rebuild kit is much smaller than the one used in the Pontiac. They also sell a complete reman control valve assy for the 'vette, but that is a different design than the one used in the Tempest/Lemans. The 'vette valve does not have left tie rod mount. As far as I can tell by reseraching this, The Pontiac control valve/adapter assy, part # 5691111 or the adapter only (part # 5691152) was only used on the Tempest/Lemans, and only in 1963.
