Column shift or Floor shift?

[81C10]

The next obstacle in my LM7 conversion is figuring out how to shift the 4l60e....


The detents for the column shifter are inside the column....causing a major head scratching on my part.

Is there a way to get the column shifter to work correctly with the 4l60e with out changing the column?

would it be better to invest in a lokar floor shifter?

A different shifter cable should do the trick.

i had no problem, im using the stock shifter in the column to shift the 60e tranny in my 82 c10

There is no cable...its all hard linkage...

You were able to use the factory linkage? or did you get a kit from somewhere? How does the indicator on the column work with the 4 speed?

Is the indicator electronic or just fluorescent bars? U can use the stock mechanical linkage. We've done a few conversions works fine.
