I have installed a B and M Ratchet shifter in my 360 magnum 727 trans 65 Coronet. The problem is that the only path for the shifter cable from the bracket on the transmission puts it right up against the exhaust header where the cable goes across the bell housing. I already ruined the first cable. I have found a way to route the cable, (using the ruined one) so that it only touches the header in this one place, but there is no getting around this one place. So my questions are, 1) how did others handle this dilemma, 2)What are the best materials to wrap/insulate the cable at that point, 3) should I get or have made a cable that will tolerate this positioning, if so from who, or s
hould I get a whole different shifter/cable assembly that avoids this issue? Very interested in anything that will fix this for the last time. This is really a jumpin' hot rod with over 400 HP and a 4500 stall converter and a 3.55 to 1 posi. I love it but don't want to be fixing it over and over. Help Help
