Thanks for the info.
My shifter is a T handled one likely from the donor vehicle. I cant find any elect. connection on the transmission. I do have the kickdown cable attached to the throttle and the right side of the transmission. The only thing I pass is a slow moving farm tractor. There is a steel tube from the intake manifold to what I assume is the vacuum modulator on the left rear of the transmission. Dont know what the Vac modulator does.
The shifter has a black wire coming out of it and inside looks like there should be a bulb to light up the shifter numbers and letters. Nothing is hooked up.
Im planning on converting to a Lokar shifter at some point so am trying to figure out what makes everything tick.
