I installed a Road Race oil pan on my V8. Now my shift rod is in the way. I need to decide on a J West or cable setup. Anyone have pics of the J west system from the firewall to the tranny?

The JWest linkage will give you less room than stock and travels along the same path as the original, so I don't think it will do you any good.

The "bend" in the stock linkage hits the pan so no 4-5 gears. it hits the If I bend the rod to clear the pan, it hits the header so no 1-R gears. I have a window of 1.5 inches to get between. I'm thinking of U-joints, bearings and strait rod. If I can make the rod spin instead of swinging, it would shift fine. |
