Shifter Conversion Kits

• Q: My new Shifter/Shifter Conversion does not have enough detents.

A: Both the transmission and the shifter have detents, and they serve different purposes. The rooster comb detent in the transmission “locks” the Trans into a gear and the shifter detent protects the transmission from inadvertently being put into the wrong gear and causing damage to the transmission. Bumping the shifter into Neutral is not generally seen as harmful. The shifter detent makes it impossible to bump the transmission into Reverse or a lower gear with out the driver taking an action to do so.

• Q: How do I connect the wire to my new temperature sending unit?

A: The button top style sender is different from the idiot light sender, but the same as the GM gauges sender used. A simple connection can be made using a standard female spade type crimp on connector. Take a small flat blade screw driver and use it to open up the connector as if it was to be used on a fat male spade. Then slide it onto the sending unit
