Switching From Column to Floor Shifter
My problem: I have a 1977 Ford F-100 with a new crate 350 and refurbished TH400. Currently it is a three speed on the column (boring!:( ). I am having issues with the engine dying when shifted from Park to Reverse or Drive (But it runs fine in Park or once in Reverse or Drive!).:mad: I am not sure what is causing this, but I was hoping a new floor shifter may help and would look better.:cool:
My question: How difficult of a job is this going to be? :confused: And what would be the best aftermarket shifter for this application? :D (I like the look of the long nostalgic shifters and can't see how a short shifter would work in a truck).
