Restoration / Re: 67 4 speed reverse switch

« on: December 20, 2015, 03:07:52 AM »

Here is a picture of mine.  It's a Saginaw tranny.  I'm having trouble with the shift rod rubbing the side of the switch when i use reverse and shorting out.   Apparently there is another set up that mounts a bracket on two bottom bolts of the cover and uses a short rod that attaches to the reverse linkage.

Bought them from classic ind.  guess it's foreign made junk

I attended the Spring nationals and will also go to the GM nationals at Carlisle the end of June.  There is usually lots of parts vendors - kinda flee market atmosphere.  Lots of fun.  I'm not familiar with Camaro nationals.

One thing i did notice, the metal plate that attaches to the end of the lock cylindar and connects to the rod that moves up and down has about 10 degrees of flex.  So when you turn the lock cylindar using the key, the cylindar rotates about 10 degrees before the interior rod moves up or down.  Just wondering if that is normal?
