Lokar shifter

Wanted to order a Lokar shifter kit for my '60 with the new 700R4 in there, but what would be the best option dash and bench wise?

Was thinking to order this one:

Thnx in advance,

Re: Lokar shifter

This is the one I have in the 66. Has the high hump and fits good. I had the same shifter in my 65 with the low hump and it was a tight fit but did work.

Re: Lokar shifter

I've got the Radical 32, though note the position it exits my high hump due to my frame swap to a 77

You may find this thread useful too http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=575486
