I picked with a side shifter Tranny a few weeks ago and will be putting it into a 72 to replace the tail shifter. I have 99% of the linkage but I remember reading some where I need a new engine tin piece? Is this true and if so does anyone have a part number for the piece or a pic?
Thanks

iirc, you don't need any engine tin to do the swap ken. you do need the firewall bushing that adapts the later shift rod to the early tubs.

cool...

the one thing often forgotten... (I know I did once).. is the little metal brackets that are specific to side shifters that the motor mounts go on.. (bottom of motor/above motor bar)...

don't forget them..

Here is a veiw of the linkage so you can make sure that you have all the bits. I would replace the bushings and cone screws for a nice tight shifter from the get go. Steve

#24 is the one you need with the correct inside diameter for the shift rod and the correct outside demension for the earlier firewall opening. most vendors have them. the late model boot will not work without mods to the fire wall.
