C6 question

I've got a 50 Ford F-1 with a newly installed 351W and C6 auto transmission and I'm installing a new Lokar shifter. Looking at the left side of the transmission, with the motor to the left front, which way does the linkage rotate so its in park? All the way clockwise or all the way counter-clockwise?

Don`t know. But lift one rear wheel clear so that you can rotate the driveshaft. It will rotate easily by hand with the selector lever in any position other than Park. In Park the driveshaft will be locked.
