I tried on a Square body, and called a guy I was familiar with who had his own lock smith company.

Effectively no you can not. The ignition lock cylinder, and the door lock cylinder use different key blanks. Plus supposedly they do not interchange lock cylinders or adjustment pins. For lack of the right term.

Or atleast that is the answer I was given. After he played with it for awhile looking for interchange parts.

Maybe someone has figured it out, but I have not run across it as of yet. So when I get around to it. I want to get 2 Chevy trucks keyed the same so I only have one set to deal with.
