Default 76 Shift Linkage set up

I replace the clutch on my 76 Vette and I am now having difficulty correctly setting up the shift linkage. The interlock linkage is too short for me to connect and still remove the key from the ignition.
Is there a tool that I need to set up the neutral position on the shifter?
Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.

You didn't say, so I assumed a stock shifter. Here is instruction for a 75. I think it will be the same.
