I would like to add a 360 degree rotational coupler in place of the stock coupler found on the shift rod near the firewall. With my v8 conversion the fan belt is very close to the stock coupler when the shifting in 4th and 5th gears.

Looking for any advice or source for such a coupler and install tips.

This picture is not of my v8, but it illustrates how close the coupler is to the belt. The coupler when turned by the shift rod used to barely clear, but now since I lowered my car...the coupler grazes the belt on 4th and 2nd gear shifts...too close for my comfort.
