Pistol grip shifter

Post by 71Beeper » Sat Feb 26, 2011 5:30 pm

Guys: Since I'm converting my 71 over to a 4 speed without console, I'm curious on which pistol grip shifter to use? Will an E-Body (with console) shifter work? Info on the Gunslinger site suggest the B-Body one without console is bigger than the E-Body one. I just bought the whole 4 speed setup that was gonna be for a 72 Charger, but passed up on the shifter as it was the shorter E-Body one.
Can someone post some pics of thier 4 speed setups please?
Many Thanks.

71-74 b-body shorter pistol grip shifter is same one 70 -74 ebody

without console and with console

There are two 4 speed humps for 71-74 b-body a short one and a long one. The short one is for bench seat cars or bucket seats with a buddy seat and it's a medium pistol grip. The long one is for bucket seat with or without console and uses a short pistol grip.
Gunslinger gave you the wrong info. :beer:
