Re: 700R4 shifter (jeffie86/96)
From what I've read so far, it seems that the answer is no :(
at least not for the Corvette that is... I think there's some guy here though that modified his stock shifter to act like a ratchet shifter :confused:

B&M makes a number of shifters; one may appeal to you.
Since I wanted more shift position control with a totally stock look, I boughty a used shifter and simply cut notches into the shift gate. Now I have to press the button to pull below 3rd gear but not on upshifts. On upshifts there is enough tactile feel to assure which gear I'm in.

I have been looking for over a year, NO! if you are using the console. the console for the F body bolts, but it doesn't fit the console.

No shifter is available that will bolt in without major modifications. Nearly all of the shifters on the market are too high and have the wrong bend for a comfortable operation. I drove a vette the other day with an aftermarket shifter and found out that I had to reach high and far to use it. It was uncomfortable.
