E-body pistol grip vs B-body?

[koosh]

Anyone install the shorter E body pistol grip shifter in their mid 60s B body non console car? Is it too far to reach?
Pros? Cons?

Not a B Body but I did use one in a Duster years ago.
Being that a B Body has the shifter mounted further back on the tail housing I believe it would work

I did BUT I have the Hurst Supershifter with the bracket that moves the shifter back about 8 inches AND raises it up a couple.

If you used the e-body shifter in a b-body you better have lo-o-o-o-ng arms !!!

Appreciate the input!

I would bet it’s going to hit your dash.
I have the same shifter relocate setup as gkent.

Hmmmm…. I was thinking being much shorter the dash would not come into play?

I honestly don't think you'd be able to reach it anyway. If mounted in the stock location it would mount where the white dot is. The front of that bracket you see comes up through the original hole in the hump.
