My car has a hurst v-gate shifter in it currently and a butchered up trans tunnel. I am no drag racer and personally hate the inline v-gate, and want to go back to the original style shifter.

However I am not that strong on trans knowledge and just want to make sure I get the linkages hooked up correctly.

Thanx!

What shifter are you replacing the v-gate with? Assuming that it is a Hurst Competition Plus, Hurst should be able to supply you with instructions. You may be able to download it from their websight.
The non-Hurst origional type shifter is a POS and I wouldn't use it unless you are trying to do some sort of concours restoration.
I've got Richmond T-10 and a competion plus and it works great!
Best of luck.

'67 car, shoulda came w/ a Muncie and a Muncie shifter like mine..

And fwiw, I LIKE my Muncie shifter BUT, then again, I work w/ mine and take the time to keep it clean, lubed and set right!! Work's like a charm for me!!

Remount the tranny to the cross member, then push a 1/4" or 5/16" bit in the adjusting hole and then adjust it so that you lead second going across to third and third the other ways backward!

Like this!!

It only take's like a thread, MAYBE a thread and a half to do this.

You will feel the diff. as she slides across the "H"!!!

here's a pic of aftermarket hurst linkage installed.

Jim, the 1-2 shift lever is installed upside down in that picture.
This is how the linkage should look on a Hurst Competition Plus shifter in a 67-68 Camaro:
