Used ShiftWorks kit to modify original shifter. Installed new yoke on original driveshaft. Transmission was built by BowTie Overdrives and they talked me through the adjustment of the cable. In fact they insist. I couldn’t be happier. Oh, by the way, engine makes 600 hp.
Thanks. I actually have a fresh 200-4R but was hesitant to try it. Car should be somewhere between 400 - 450hp. Might want to take it to the track once just to see what it will do, but don't intend to make more than a pass or two. It is on my bucket list to take it to the Silver State Classic some day. The trans came out of a Monte SS which I'm told is a little better than most 200's. So I might look further into going this route since I already have it.
