Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Corvette / February 2005Shifter
Hey people first off thanks...with all the help ive gotten here the vette it running good ..(Id like to post pictures but that will be a diferent post to figgure out how) Now im looking for a shifter to put in. A friend of mine gave me a B&M mega shifter but it was way to tall and the bolt holes were WAY off ( i think it was for a truck) But im looking for something along those lines a ratchet shifter for my 76 any help is appreciated!! Thanks again This isn't an answer for you, but I just hate it when I see one of those big clumsy things in a car, especially a Vette. They look so tacked in and added on, with no attempt to match the regular surroundings. And face it, it is a '76 Corvette. What will this shifter do for you? > Hey people first off thanks...with all the help ive gotten here the vette it > running good ..(Id like to post pictures but that will be a diferent post to [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > those lines a ratchet shifter for my 76 any help is appreciated!!

Here is my answer I took the L48 and TH-350 out put in a 69 327 and a 200-R4 Now that everything is up and running right I went to the Local 1/8 mile track here in Holt (my first time at a track mind you) I kept going from 1st -3rd or 2nd to OD blowing All my shifts..lol..im a rookie. I should have been a little more specific in my post and asked if there was a bolt in ratcheting shifter that looked fairly stock > This isn't an answer for you, but I just hate it when I see one of those > big [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >> those lines a ratchet shifter for my 76 any help is appreciated!! Thanks >> again If you have built it to drag race, then the transmission should be programmed to shift where you want it to. Then you don't have to shift manually, just put it in the top one, floor it, and hang on. Now I understand you shifting manually if you have a stock programmed transmission, as it will upshift about 4500 RPM. But if you redo it to shift at 6000 or 7000, then you have no need to shift. Second, if you are missing shifts, then you need to learn patience and control. Don't let the excitement get the best of you. > Thanks for the response Tom and I know in this board you guys have every > right to ask that question.
