I know McLeod makes a shifter that will work but which part number and what offsets? I'm using T56 out of a GTO.

Thanks

I just can't keep my eyes on the right side, I think you need to change your avatar 1st before getting any good answer!

Seriously your avatar is really distracting!

I have an LT1 T56 in mine and need to figure this out also. I talked to McLeod yesterday they can only do left 1" and forward 1.15", 1.30" or 1.80" and cost is $295 + shipping for the base without the stick.

I have a B&M Ripper i am thinking of cutting it and building a bracket that fits over and bolts to it to space it about 1 1/2" at an angle....has anyone tried this yet?

Corey_68

Anyone?

I'm interested in your shifter, but they are $285 new. Does your price include anything besides the shifter?

Street Shaker

There is pics of the shifter on the tread that I posted ( G-Force t56 complit package bolt on kit ) Few years back I paid close to $400 for it from Mcleod, lowest I'll go on the price is $250 plus shipping.

DVG73 has Red's on his and it jumps out of third. It's going to be a pain in the a$$ to pull everything out to re-adjust.

You can make one yourself pretty easily.

Nice work on the shifter, what base did you use?

HamadUP

Nice work! absolutely the way to go.

It's a factory Hurst shifter. It has a nice tight shift pattern that fits easily into the stock opening. I bought a rebuilt unit on ebay.

Factory Hurst is a nice unit, had one in my Formula Firehawk

Corey_68

You wouldn't happened have the pattern that you used would you?

72LS1Vette

I'll see if I can find it but it's really not hard to figure out. Measure the travel between 1st and 2nd, and over to reverse. Set your console over the shifter and measure how far over to the center of the shifter hole. If you use the Hurst shifter the pattern is so close that it's hard to screw up.

I'm wondering about the pattern used i will be putting a t56 on my 75. i already did a t56 swap on 79 just didn't do the offset shifter as i only drove for 500 miles before accident... i want to do it right so I'm wondering what was offset.. hopefully it gets resurrected

American powertrain sells one that will work and its adjustable.

I'll have to get measurements next time I take my console apart. For now I could only share a couple photos of mine. It's a Hurst Billet/Plus shifter that I modded.
