what exactly do you need on the shifter cheeto? is the problem in the tranny itself? can you not fab a shifter assembly? if its something that can be cut on a plasma-cam type machine let me know (if your not familiar with plasma-cam its like a flow jet but with a plasma cutter obviously) i think dan said it was in the shifter assembly.

ITs the top plate of the trans that has the shift rails and forks in it. I got it working a little better. I just need to mess with it more i guess. Need to get some play money to finish this thing up soon.
