How do they work? There are two different types, a regular H pattern and the "straight-through" that you mentioned. See this thread ($2). Here's an original ad for them: (http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c296/ret56fe/other/impala.jpg) cheers RET Title: Re: floor shift conversion Post by: nicko on February 25, 2006, 11:41:41 AM straight line are a great shifter in good condition but when they have a bit of wear they jamm easily going from reverse to first,(means getting under car and setting linkages back to neutral position) to get it unjammed,the Impala H pattern is a very nice and close pattern only have to move shift babout 4inches for each gear change.
