I have a Turbo Action shifter as well. It is a close fit but it works without interference.

it's a close fit on mine too but there is enough clearence with my T/A shifter. what shifter do you have?
I have the stock '71 B-Body Slap-Stick so I am not using a reverse valve body.
I may split the CSI plate, and weld in a spacer so it sits further out. I will have to see how much room I have to work with once the trans is in the car.

i hate to say, but i know alot of people dont even use the strap, they just bolt the shield up and go.
With the shield sandwiched between the trans and a stock steel floor the strap probably doesn't do much. If you have a thin aluminum floor use the strap! You could fail tech without the strap if you're required to have the shield.

I don't use my strap....it's rolled up out of the way....I don't see how the shield could go anywhere.

I just bought a CSI shield. I suppose I need to remove the transmission? Any easier way?
Unless they changed the design, you will need to cut off the 2 forward bosses on the outside of the transmission to clear the shield.

What car do u have? My experience . 70 rr 440 727. first u need a 10mm 12pt universal socket. On me two bolts bottomed out. Had to cut off a 1/4". I had the engine and kframe out. Had to bolt it up a few times it hits in a few spots. It was fun to say the least.
If I had to try to do it the car i would probably unbolt the engine and tilt it. good luck . my
The bolts that come with it are 10mm 12 pt. allen bolts dont even work.
Mine were 3/8 12 point heads, a little long though.
