Hurst Shifter Info 68 442

I'm converting my 68 TH400 to a Muncie 4-speed. I'm using the factory shifter hump for a 68 Cutlass/442 and I want to make sure I use the correct shifter and installation kit to locate it properly. I have several used Competition Plus shifters, and I'm hoping I have one with the correct shifter arms. I also have a few installation kits and again I'm hoping I have the correct one. Would anyone be able to give me the part # for the shifter and the installation kit that I need? Thank you to anyone that can help.

If you want a complete correct OEM restored Hurst shifter with everything needed to install it I have it. I also have the same unit in unrestored but in great condition. It's all OEM GM parts with rods, arms mounting plate etc. The OEM linkage rods are larger and more beefier than the Hurst aftermarket parts. If interested PM me or contact me @ pchopesq@aol.com

Shifter use:





End view of a 66-69 shifter. All 66-69 shifters are a straight handle. There is no difference for console vs non-console



If you currently have a floor shift automatic these are the dimensions that you need to cut around the existing shift cable:





Picture of an existing shifter hump for reference:
