Re: anyone use an 82-92 camaro automatic shifter on their 55-59?

When I was figuring out my column shift to TH350 relationship I found that the distance from the shifter pivot to center of cable connection and transmission shift lever pivot to center of cable connection need to be the same for stock shifter detents to match the transmission. It is best to put the shift lever and transmission lever in neutral to make sure any neutral safety switches, etc. are lined up correctly. In your case you will need to measure the distance on the shifter and find a transmission lever that has the same geometry. Also check lever orientation. I used B&M racing shifter cable and transmission lever/bracket on mine.
