They are the same. The only diff is if it is power or manual steering. But they are still the same. The lower shaft just moves to accommodate either setup. The column will be the same. I just did a nontilt to tilt swap. Using the nontilt won't affect anything.

I also did the power steering upgrade a long time ago with the nontilt. So, you are all good.
