Well...there is a catch.
The bolt pattern on the leather wrapped FF5 steering wheel WILL NOT fit the flaming river adapter.
Luckily, I have access to a machine shop where I work.
I gave the adapter to our machinist and he surfaced (removed) enough of the adapter to wipe out the threads.
He then used a program to drill and tap the new locations to match the FF5 wheel.

I drew up in Pro-Engineer a file that fits the FF5 wheel.

If you go this route, I can e-mail you the file as a .stp or .dxf file.
