I knew it was gonna be a problem, I could have put my other shifter and mount plate on the trans, as it would have fit. But I really like the straight forward approach this one has. I also wanted it closer and higher to me because I do a lot of shifting in Road Racing, and with the belts cinched tight it can be a stretch to getting into third. I'll clean it up and make it look a lot better. Sorry about the crap picture but it was dark and there's not much light that gets in the car from the garage.

That's how the inline linkage hits to, I made a removable panel that starts at around the go pedal to the backside of the shifter and welded up the old location hole. :gitrdun:

Oooo floor carnage on the Camaro! Get'er done Mills! :)
Looking good! |
some extra sheet metal laying around, and $15 Spectra Bootie from Autozone and problem is solved! I really like the new position of the shift lever too, much easier. I drove the car around the block and hit all four gears plus reverse, everything seems in order. Hitting the highway tomorrow with it. It's Loud! Like really Loud! Straight cut gears for the win! I think I'll be ready if nothing happens in the next two weeks. I need to take the seat out to get the lower corner screwed down, couldn't drill it with the seat in the way. Maybe I'll paint the floors while it's out. Depends on if anything else breaks.

hit the highway with the car today, no issues. Car ran perfect in traffic, easiest motor swap I've ever done. The Transmission shifts HARD! I mean a big clunk when it goes in gear, even using the clutch its a lot different than the ST10 with syncros in it. I can see myself over the winter looking for a Dana 44 center section, lets hope it doesn't come to that because I'm about out of money. :drowninga:

Drove it around for a while yesterday, she runs strong, the trans is taking a little time to get used to, not really set up well for driving around town for sure.
Here's a few pictures as I was putting the decals from Improved Racing on the car. I need opinions on the front stickers, do they look better on the air dam or on the fender? I can't decide. http://i539.photobucket.com/albums/f...psvfvvtf75.jpg http://i539.photobucket.com/albums/f...psomfdqt3h.jpg http://i539.photobucket.com/albums/f...psqseee276.jpg http://i539.photobucket.com/albums/f...psjwshwijw.jpg |
Lemans blue c6?
Sticker looks better on the fender. |
The fender and not the quarter panel. It looks good. Glad it's up and running for you.

Fender it is then. Yeah the C6 is my wife's car. It's a Lemans Blue Z51 6sp Vert. She drives it everyday in 4" heels! She's a keeper!
