Re: Hurst Competition Plus (installing Saginaw 4-spd) any alternatives?

Are you running a bench seat or bucket seats?

Re: Hurst Competition Plus (installing Saginaw 4-spd) any alternatives?

a buddy of mine got a saginaw out of a monza for his truck. when we removed it he was alarmed that the shifter didn't bolt to the trans like you would think but it was bolted to the floor! he didn't have any budget left for another shifter [insert BROKE here] so what we did was unbolt the shifter from the floor & fab some ugly brackets to hold it behind the trans untill he could afford better [insert WIN LOTTERY here] was a waste of time anyway, that saginaw didn't last long. other than this hit the swap meets- cheap shifters abound!

but........... cheap shifters won't work with a bench seat. That is unless you modify the shifter stick.

Putting a 4 speed in a 60-66 moves the shifter back under the front edge of the seat and the shifter stick hits the seat.

Been there....
