Just got my SBC TBI in tonight...I was looking at the t-case linkage and looks like I will need to be creative in fabbing a new setup...anyone out there already done this...it's a SBC to 700R4 to 3spd case...if you have already done it, please post some pics...if not, I'll come up with something and do a write-up for Woody's site...will probably do something similar to the AA twin stick setup...

Hi Dave,

What year/model is your cruiser?

I have a 1/71 40. I kept my stock vacume shift tcase. I built a frame mount for the rotation point of the shift linkage from the wall down. Then cut and welded my shift rod to my tcase.

Look at the next to last picture at:

Hopefully you can see where I welded the rod.

HTH,

When I went to an SM420 in my Pig, I used the vacume shifter as well and RustyB added an extension to the 4WD rod.

It is the easiest method.

Hey Dave...
I'm just down 12 from you and am interested in what you come up with. I currently use the vacuum shift and linkage on a TH400/3sp, but would like to go to twin sticks at some point. If you would like to try the vacuum method, I have an extra one on the shelf and the LR linkage.
We should get together for some sodypops somtime.
