Hi,

BR,
Too much linkage to bow and bend.... floor shifter is
the only way for racing

My buddy runs a 58 Mercury in the Pure Stock drags. 1st gear isn't even synchronized so the whole gear moves on the 1-2 shift. It might get a fully synchro unit this year. It runs a 430 tri-power MEL (Mercury Edsel Lincioln) motor. 14.0@100 4100lbs with 8.25x15 bias plys. Doug
