yes, you need a lever that "clamps" onto that shaft. It will have a flat part, that corresponds to the flat part on the shift arm on the transmission. Also going to need a custom cross-member, A drive shaft spacer ect.... Also dont forget to notch the bellhousing 33 times

edit your running turbo, dis-regard that last sentence.... lucky bastard

Has to be a dog leg one so the cable will line up. Moves it away from the pan rail
