Shift linkage hell

So I just installed my hooker headers and now my shift linkage won't fit back on is there anything I can do to make it work?

 

Floor shifter

 

I know but I am going as stock as possible and I heard whispers of an allusive cable shifter

What kind of shifter do you have now ? Auto, manual ? Floor or column ?

 

It's a 3 speed auto column shifter

 

Yea, that's not going to work with headers.

 

Look into Electric shifters as in solenoid shift. The 2014 charger uses one. You would probably have to be creative, hope this helps.

 

So what are people's recommendations for floor shifters? I have a 71 mav with a 302 swap

 

I found these has anyone felt with them before? http://www.americanshifter.com/cata...-shifter-kit-23-dual-bend-arm-with-black-knob they look pretty sweet

I have a B&M Quick Silver shifter in my '74. It is a ratchet shifter. I like it because as you ratchet from neutral to low the stick remains in the center position. To go up thru the gears you just bang the stick forward.

 

Oh...so who should I buy it from...?

 

Lokar or American shifters

 

Lokar makes pretty good stuff, I wounldnt think twice about buying anything from them.
