I've been playing around with this Old Hurst Ramrod shifter. Making it a better shifter. This is my prototype i came up with. Did away with the T-Handle Gate Trigger. Replaced with m/c clutch handle. Added pistol Grip
Made straight shift rods w/heim joints on 1-2 3-4 rods. It shifts so easy
than that t handle gate trigger. I've got 4 complete shifters. And enought
parts to build 2 more. It's a poor mans long shifter. Please give me some input.

 

I'd be interested to know how well it works in the real world. With a Muncie, flat shifting is kinda like a time-bomb----sooner or later it's gonna blow. I have two cars both SBO and Muncies with real good Hurst Competition Plus shifters and until I win the Powerball, I ain't flat-shifting---I have too much money in both drivetrains. My real racing days are behind me. With a Jerico or something like it, flat shifting or not using a clutch at all is a little more tolerant. I have some good friends that have Jericos and both have Long shifters. One held the N.H.R.A. D/S record for two years and the other has a '66 442 that runs 10teens with a BBO.
Let me know the outcome after some street and harder use.

 

If that set up was in my 68 it would hit the tunnel. The linkage off the case is close already
