I've been doing some research into replacing my column shifter with an aftermarket unit, custom mounted into my center console.
I've got a V8 2WD, which means I've got the 4R70W tranny.
From my research here, and on summitracing.com, and google searches, it appears that the ONLY shifter which currently exists that has the correct shift pattern for my tranny is the B&M Hammer Console Shifter.
I'd prefer to find something a bit smaller, like a Hurst Quarter Stick, or something like that.
I've heard it mentioned that a shifter with an AOD, or AODE shift pattern can "easily" be modified to work with the 4R70W, but I haven't really seen any write-ups on how that can be done. I'm hoping maybe someone can direct me to those instructions, or perhaps recommend another aftermarket (smaller) shifter that will work with my tranny.
Thanks in advance!
