Re: later 4 speed into 1962 b-body

[john althaus <althausjbl@xxxxxxx>]

Neal, mine was an old Ansen scattershield, the piviot was in the incorrect location, I checked Lakewood and they use the same location as the later cars and should be changed to get correct angles on the linkage. Make sure your bore for the input bearing retainer is correct for your transmission, Mopar used 3 different ones and the scattershild guys did all sorts of ID's. Mine was 4.95"? MOPAR never used that one! Had to cut it to 5.25 and Passon had a ring to reduce it to 4.80. Them bowtie guys have it easy!
