Default New shifter from McLeod.. T56

I didn't even know they made shifters until I saw it at their shop (was picking up my clutch). I guess it's been out for little while but I was clueless about it. I was just getting ready to buy a Pro 5.0 and got this instead. I am leaving the shifter handle bare steel and just tossing on some matte clear

It's sweet and very flexable since you can mount in either location and there are various offsets available.

There are also three handle shape to fit your need and even they can be positioned in different ways.

Almost a shame to put a boot on it.. lol

That would be nice if the engine was set back.

Why does that tranny off two shifter locations?

I've been looking at those, but info is hard to find.

Do you have a price on one? I'd like to put in on my t-56 to move the shifter a little forward...

Hey Steve,


Do have the part numbers for the shifter and handles? McLeod is such a royal pain in the butt to get through to for any info.


Thanks!

Ross

I did a search on Summit's website. They have sereral part numbers, no pictures though. Looks like they won't be availible until the middle of this month. Might be able to call them for more info.
