I have a very good side shift tranny available. I have a '70 car with a weak tail shift tranny. Is it possible to swap tail shift linkage parts to the side shifter and install in my car? By that I mean, will it work just like the original?

Thanks Gary. I have a tranny out of my orange low mile car sitting at Camp 914. But I don't want to switch my car to a side shifter. I know, I'm crazy, but I want to maintain originality of my '70.
