well i did.
Easy part was mounting the shifter to the floor. Hardest part is building a custom bracket for the Cable to mount to the tranny... not the shifter lever, but for the cable to have something to pull against.
if i can find some, i will get you some pics

Hey intense, which shifter did you put on. I was at the store looking at different ones today, and yeah I know I'd have to custom it somehow, but I noticed the model was only for like 79-91 and it depended on which tranny I had. Not quite sure on my tranny model number, where could I find that?

Well put a bid on a B&M Quicksilver on ebay. Hopefully will get it for 20 bucks. No bottom cover and no cable so I'll have to figure a few things out, but I know I can go buy a cable. Prolly have to clean it up some too, anyone know a good chrome cleaner?

Hey intense .. ya think you could check out this link and let me know if I just #&8#ed myself. Even though for 20 bucks I should be able to clean it up and make it work.
