monzaz Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Oh god can't bare the thought ...sorry hate to here people cutting the old stuff ...hope that console is a junker... You don't like the horse shoe shifter?? I race with mine, I like it more control for shifting . and you can make up a special plate to control the shift I got one from year one and modified it ( the plate the shifter slides its bar on.) Just some thoughts can't stop you from doing what you want, just trying to sway the thought...lol Good luck. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 I put a B&M Mega shifter in mine. I had to cut the indicater plate slightly. Here's the tricky part though: the area you are trying to put that in is not a perfect rectangle. One of the ends is wider than the other. So it needs to be cut in an angle. I have mine so it is a very very snug fit. I didn't even screw that down. One other thing, to make the boot look good, I had to shim the shfter up with washers, otherwise it was sitting way too low. And I did have to cut some of the counsil apart, but nothing that could be seen. I was pretty happy with the install and love the shifter.

Guest Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Hey Hey Big J if you have a hard time posting the picture let me know you can e-mail to me and I will post for you Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Thanks Dave. But the problem I'm having is uploading it from my camera. My computer turned into a rock, which means I have to go to my Dads to do it. Tried it once but had no luck. I've been working a lot and haven't had a chance to try again. I have a lot of pics to upload, like pictures from woodward still. If I do have problems after uploaded, I will keep that in mind though.

Guest Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 Has anyone installed a B&M Quicksilver shifter in their console? If so did you have to make any mods or did you have to do any cutting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
