You really need to swap your metal linkage and go with a cable.

I bought a lokar 36 inch ls1 cable off ebay. kinda pricey, but worth it I'm sure. I've seen guys use baling wire

hahaha

Yes, you would be better off to switch to a cable ser up. I have pics of how to hook a factory cable up in my build thread in my sig. (The rusty '71)
