    4L70E transmission shifter

    Anyone have any info on the correct Lokar shifter for a 4L70E mated to aLS3 in a 33 Hot Rod? I’ve read they are hard to fit?

    I used the same shifter too. If you are going to build a console above the tranny cover and mount your shifter like I did consider ordering it with the 6" shift rod. The standard rod is only 4", however that is measured from the bottom of the nut at the base to the top of the mushroom ball.
    See post 148 for how I mounted the shifter.
