B&M Shifter help!

Hey, I was just wondering what exactly this shifter is and does(ive gone thru the topics but all I found were the shifter was shifting hard topics).

Is it like a manual shifter for an automatic or something?

And hows the installation on these things, ive heard you had to cut apart the console!?

B&M makes many kinds of shifters for both auto and manual. You might consider listing your car's info.

Darn that was a QUICK update

Re: B&M Shifter help!

Sorry, my B&M is a short throw. I have no experience with the autos.

Re: B&M Shifter help!

The Megashifter is a ratchet shifter - for the forward gears it will only move one gear at a time. It works very well if you like to manually shift thru your automatic gears. It took me about 4 hours to install, and yes you have to cut the top plastic piece of the console to install it. It comes with like a paper template to show you where to cut.

How in the world did you get 350 RWHP out of a 305?
