It is 6 pack linkage to the best of my knowledge. The shop ordered it and put in on. I am assuming they ordered 6 pack linkage.

Is all of that stuff stock or reproduction? It looks stock There has to be a starting point for adjusting everything, thats the rig position,if its not right then nothing else will be right no matter how much you fiddle with it.If its right, then everything else falls into place. So you start with the bell crank, see the holes in the mount bracket and bell crank? You un hook everything, put a screw driver or a rod the same size as the holes through all the holes, and that locks the bell crank into place to start the adjustment.The book well spell out every thing out as to how much everything need adjusted.You really need a book, cause you can burn up the trans if this stuff isn't right.Ask me how I know. Now if the trans has a shift kit or other things, then you need to talk to a trans expert.I wouldn't drive it till you get it right, cause you can burn up the trans. And buy a real Mopar book not a off brand book. You need one SOOOO bad when working on these cars, cause thats the way they engineered it to be done.Also, like he said, MAKE SURE you have a sixpack set up first. Even the throttle cable is different between sixpack and 4 barrel. Is that a E body or 71 B body?

That was a pic right before it was done, nothin under the hood has changed Lol. The car is complete (With fenders Lol)
That should help diagnose the problem. I will disconnect/wire and put the rear on jack stands and see if it will shift thru the gears. Thanks.
The rims are incorrect before someone mentions it. Waiting for the steelies to get blasted and painted.
Where can I buy a manual and what is the name of it exactly?
I wouldn't put it on jackstands , it will shift to 3rd in the safe of a few hundred feet at the most.
Here is what you want. factory service manual

You can download a '70 service manual for free from mymopar.com http://www.mymopar.com/index.php?pid=109If this is a new trans the problem might not be in the linkage, to check it for sure disconnect the linkage at the transmission lever and allow the lever to come full forward...if it still won't shift with the linkage disconnected the problem is in the trans.

Before pulling the trans, check the governor pressure; if it's really high or really low the governor can be serviced without pulling the trans....if the governor pressure is normal then pull the valve body.
