automatic steering column to manual

so i have a tilt automatic steering column... and unless its in park it wont turn over.... well id like to put a manual steering column in it since after today i bumped the turn signal lever and now the tilt wont lock.... thing is even after i find i manual how do i bypass that neutral safty switch so itll start since there is no park selector on a manual column

You can just jumper the pins at the connector and wire up a clutch switch instead. Your reverse lights also go through the same switch and will need to be re-routed to the reverse light switch on the transmission if you're swapping to a manual.
