I used to do a lot of work with a die grinder, hacksaw and file before I had any machinery. It's surprising what you can make with basic tools.
The shifter came from Keisler. I bought several T56 shift relocation kits from them hoping to save some time and machining when doing gearboxes for people. It had the opposite effect. Unfortunately the dimensions and geometry on their shifter was ****house. The bolt pattern was wrong and it wouldn't even bolt up and then the ratios in the shifter mechanism were awful and it wouldn't engage the socket in the shift rail correctly. Maybe I got a bad batch but I had to machine the new bases to make them work properly. The shifter part itself is a nice piece just the fitment was not good.
Cheers
