I think I recall ordering the handle from Jegs for around $30 and then had a local machine shop drill/tap it to fit with the Hurst short throw shifter.

The line lock is also from Hurst and is around $125.

The pic isn't the greatest, but it should give you an idea. Mine looks pretty much the same, but doesn't display the Hurst logo on it.

It's funny my linkelock install was a nightmare.

I bent my own lines... and tired using an adapter for the metic fitting on the ABS block. I ended up breaking a fitting off down inside my ABS block (since the adapter would not seat properly). Luckily, I was able to get a machine shop to get it out for me. I then had to machine another adapter to make it fit.

Whatever you do, buy a kit. The fittings are very odd and awkward. Each year is a bit different. I think they actually had metric on one end and sae on the other
