with out going to a ratchet shifter, how could I get my 3 speed slap stick to work on a 5 speed auto. Does anyone know of a company that makes a 5 speed slap stick to fit an E body. I realy hate ratchet shifters, and I do like slap sticks

5 speed? what tranny are you using?

the trany is a 5 speed auto, out of a 2004 dodge pickup with a 5.7 hemi, that I am going to put into a 71 dodge challenger.

545RFE then....just wondering, as there is also the A580 in the LX's...

Are you good at building circuit boards? Those are electronic transmissions. The shifter in the console is a computer with a lever sticking out of it.

I do not know which one it is for sure, I didn't know that they were electronic shift. That kind of puts a twist on things. So what would be a good choice for a shifter set up, preferably one that would fit my E body councel.

545RFE:
OPERATION
MANUAL LOW (1) range provides first gear only. Overrun braking is also provided in this range. MANUAL SECOND (2) range provides first and second gear only.

DRIVE range provides FIRST, SECOND, THIRD, OVERDRIVE FOURTH, and OVERDRIVE FIFTH (if applicable) gear ranges. The shift into OVERDRIVE FOURTH and FIFTH (if applicable) gear ranges occurs only after the transmission has completed the shift into D THIRD gear range. No further movement of the shift mechanism is required to complete the 3-4 or 4-5 (if applicable) shifts.

The FOURTH and FIFTH (if applicable) gear upshifts occur automatically when the overdrive selector switch is in the ON position. No upshift to FOURTH or FIFTH (if applicable) gears will occur if any of the following are true:

The transmission fluid temperature is below 10° C (50° F) or above 121° C (250° F).
The shift to THIRD is not yet complete.
Vehicle speed is too low for the 3-4 or 4-5 (if applicable) shifts to occur.
Upshifts into FOURTH or FIFTH (if applicable) will be delayed when the transmission fluid temperature is below 4.5° C (40° F) or above 115.5° C (240° F).
