Re: Converting an auto trans truck to stick?
My Gosh.....why would you want a "3 on the tree"????? Put the linkage on the floor. You will need to do some fab work on the shifter arm because, if you have a bench seat like I do, it's a long ways from the shifter to the top of your seat.
To answer another question......The granny 4 speeds are very short which is why the crossmember is almost under the firewall. You will have to use the style that goes under the tailshaft. You are not limited to a truck x-member though. Before I used the GMC one I had, I threw a '68 Camaro x-member under there and it would have worked with no mods. The only thing is that you may have needed to shim it a bit to get the angle you were looking for.
If you are thinking about any kind of a close ratio 4 speed like a Munice 21 or 22, stay off the column shift cuz you will look funny going down the road trying to shift fast enough....people might think you are having a medical event!!!!! LOL
