This issue surfaced in a different conversation thread, so I though it may deserve it's own topic. Regarding shifter mechanisms. I am building a left hand drive car with a left hand rod shift (no cables) on the sill and I have not found the appropriate shifter mechanism to use or modify to suit the requirements. Yes, I have looked at the Porsche units, I am SURROUNDED by the air cooled guys. They appear to have enough fore and aft movement, but do not look to have the proper throw required to rotate my selector shaft in and out of the housing, which is a modified R21. It looks like I can fabricate my own similar to the one in pictures that Malcolm in the UK sent me of his Lotus, but I don't have home machining capabilities (yet...)Has anyone utilized an off the shelf unit successfully?
