1972 Dodge Charger Automatic to Manual Converstion - Short vs Long Tunnel

[ed22]

I am converting my 72 charger to a manual and plan to not have a console. I am gearing towards using a short tunnel just to keep things cleaner but am worried about fitment issues. I do not have a specific transmission in mind but will most likely be using a Keisler TKO 5 speed. Will I have problems with this transmission with a the shorter tunnel? I noticed that their kit comes with a long tunnel.

Thanks in advance

Just put a TKO 600 in my 71. If I had to do again, I would go 6 speed. They fit better than the TKO from my understanding and are not that much more $.

So use the long tunnel with the short shifter handle like the factory. Bucket seat non-console. The short tunnel is for the bench seat long handle shifter.
Using the TKO with the long tunnel should be fine. I done a few E-bodies which is the same setup. The short tunnel, I don't know. I don't see it working with the TKO shifter. location.
