Yep, many companies make 3 speed manual floor shifters.
Check your local auto parts stores.
Or summit, jegs, amazon, ect.
Hurst makes a nice one.
Be aware that the cheaper ones are just that...cheap.
They break easily and jam up if they aren't adjusted properly or as they wear.

I have a lokar shifter on my th350. I like having the hole in the floor. I think it's how a goods shifter should be. Mounted to the trans!

I installed the megashifter in my truck, was pretty straight forward the cable makes it simple to install

i love having the shifter on the floor the ratchet/slap shift is really fun and hard to miss shift

Sorry no pics trucks in my mothers garage for the winter

[ivorton74]

i plan to install the b&m hammer shifter in my truck with a 350 trans. i like the full ratchet action.

I've got a HURST LIGHTNING ROD SHIFTER I'll be installing into my crew cab when I bring it home this spring. Looks like this puppy here...

I put this one in my 70 Formula try'n to save a buck, There's no shift detent other than the trans and no reverse lock-out. It was a PITA counting detents to make sure you were in D and too easy to skip a shift when power shifting.


I'm go'n with a ratchet shifter in my 74.....

[tazman87]

i would love to get the street rod shifter..but i do not agree with the price.

[Pyrotechnic]

If you are going to get anything, at the very least get a B&M StarShifter. It doesn't cost much more than the Unimatic and it is an actual ratchet shifter. It will only work with with a three speed auto though.

[piecesparts]

I have a B&M Mega shifter in my 84 truck, my son's 86 truck and are both 4-speed autos. B&M offers the shifters to fit either 3-speed or 4-speed autos. You have to have the truck Megashifter to get the taller mount for the floor, but I have put a floor shift in 3 trucks now and I like them very much. I did have a cable failure on my old daily driver, but it did not take much to fix it. The local supplier had a new cable by the end of the day.

i have the unimatic shifter in my 64, works great looks good. i personally cant stand the ratchet shifters!! but that just me, i couldnt wait to take the one in my truck out.

when you are on the drag strip it make a difference, quick no miss shifts

but some of my friends who drive it every once in a while don't care for it either I my self like it a lot

[tazman87]

the unimatic is cheap..i really want a tall stick shifter like it is. i dont want to be bending over to change gears lol

[camshaftgsxr]

that will be slick, I cant wait to see it install'd.

[piecesparts]

Here you go a couple sets of a B&M truck megashifter. One is in my 84 truck and the other is in my 91 Silverado. Both of them are connected to 700 R4 trannys. They come with a "T" handle, but I installed the shifter balls on them for comfort when driving.

I thought they add'd reverse lock out to the IndyMatic but the add dont mention that they did.
you'r 100% right , with the reverse lock out it aint worth a crap.
