B&m shifter cable problems

I'm new to the site and I just bought a 92 z28 it has been board over 30,And has a mild cam and is in good shape for the year. My problem is the guy before me put in a B&M shifter and it is very hard to get it into drive and the shifter is very stiff should I replace the cable or put the factory shifter back in, it also came with the car, What would you guys do... Thanks for your input.

Hello welcome to third gen If it was me I would crawl under the car and see if the cable has a tight bend that will need to be removed by routing a different way.

Re: B&m shifter cable problems

Mine is the same way, i've been rebuilding my motor so I still haven't adjusted it. You'll have to do a search around here, there is a nice diagram that shows how to wire needs to be, and if there is a bend or kink it is hard to shift like you said. It is really hard for me to put it into first without slamming it into gear

I will check out how they have it routed and look at the diagram to make sure it is right, because I like the way the B&M shifter looks.. over the stock looking shifter.
