Neutral Switch 700r

[65GMCFirstride]

I am installing a neutral saftey switch in my 65 GMC. I have a 700R transmission and a 72 van tilt column in the truck. I am having trouble adjusting it to "start" in neutral. It is starting in the drive position next to neutral. I have adjusted the switch as much as I can.

I started to wonder if the 72 neutral switch is for a non-overdrive transmission and that is why I am having trouble with the adjustment.

Is that accurate?

I have searched the deepest depths of the forum, but I found nothing that addresses my issue.

Thanks,

I'm wondering if you need to enlarge the slot for the switch to get more adjustment. Alan's Classics build thread showed mods to his steering column but I dont remember what the mods were for exactly. 'Vitamin C-10' in builds....
