floor shifter connection to transmission?

[82Cecil]

6.0 swap using 700r4 tranny 82 C10 shortbed

Attached pic shows column shift linkage hitting O2 sensor position on driver side header.

Would a floor shifter solve this or does it use the same set up, only relocating the shifter location in the cab?

Can this problem be solved by switching to a floor shifter.

Personally I think it would be a lot easier to just move the O2 sensor...

Do you self a favor and have the O2 bung moved. I just had to do this on mine to clear the frame.

This my attempt at 1 3/4" primary long tube headers.

I eventually plan to go to a floor shifter later, but will do it sooner if it provides a solution to this problem. If switching to a floor shift does not change the use of the horizontal bracket/rod, then moving the bung sounds like the way to go.

These are Schoenfeld 1302 LS 1 headers intended for the 88 thru 98 1500s
the driver side slips in so nicely from below, and the passenger side needs a little work on the no. 2 cyl exhaust tube.

Thanks for the reply

If you add a floor shifter,that what's geting in tha way is not needed. You can jus remove it.

thanks for the info.

I wasn't sure how the floor shifter works or connects because I have never had one.

My B&M Megashifter uses a cable which you can route how you want.

Just remember, you don't want your O2 at 6 o'clock or "straight down" as moisture will collect on and in it and it'll go bad quickly.

I think I'm going to check out a B & M truck Mega shifter

agree with the floor shifter I have a b&m also and with the cable wont even be close to the sensor or that side of the header collector.
