The factory Pistol Grip 70 units used a unique shifter mech with different shift finger lengths to help avoid that very problem. Which mechanism are you using?

From the pic it is a replacement A/B mech. It will have a 6370 stamped on the reverse lever. As Scott stated above, 70 B cars used a special box for the pistol grip shifter.

I remember that as those units got a little worn, hitting the dash was very common when grabbing 3rd.


Master, again and still

I didn't realize the linkage was different too , I have one of these boxes I was going to put in a non pistol grip application to shorten the throw as a short shift kit ...

1/2 & 3/4 rods are about 3/8" longer. Then the Rev rod is obviously different to clear the speedo cable.
