Hi Gents, working on putting a Hurst floor shifter on a 1955 2nd series 341 Muncie 3 Speed. My issue is with the shift lever tabs which are significantly different other Hurst tabs. The output shift rods (don’t know the correct terminology) have a grooved notch on one side a nut/bolt slides over the notch squeezing the tab holes together. The tab itself is not the typical tabs which are available on eBay. There is no notch on mine. The connecting tab is bent over 180 degree and the bottom end where the hole slides over the shift rod, is then squeezed together with nut/bolt. Sooooo, as of now I’m stuck! Once I figure out how to attach photos, I will do so. I guess i could grind another notch on the opposite side of the rod and flip the tab and drill out the top hole to accept the hurst levers. Thoughts, suggestions or comments welcomed.
