Re: 1967 c-10 ls6
ulakovic, hi, cab hasn't been on yet. I have measured and measured again, it is almost exactly where the stock 4spd would be. Truck was a small hump, and from other posts, I knew I had to change to a large hump,...got a really rust free one out of an automatic, so all I need to do is cut the hole. As far as the T-56, the shifter is actually located in the old inspection cover location. Milled my own shifter mount out of a block and used the old hurst shifter base. Took a 4 spd shifter and removed all the old parts off the end where it goes into the old 4 spd, welded the corvette bracket on and tada!. Mcleod makes the kit, you have to totally diassemble your trans, cut a section out of the shifter rail, and then pin the new mcleod piece into position. Hardest part, once you get over cutting the shifter rail in half, is drilling the shaft. The rail is case hardned, so you have to grind a dimple, if you will, then follow with a pilot hole. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask, love to help!
