V-gate woe is....

I just did a custom installation of one in a customers 65 Chevelle... But no never tried it... He likes it.. it doesn't work any different than the v-gate except its reverse leaver go's forward instead of backwards... Damn that Muncie has a high first gear!!...
View attachment 1715570029 I know most of them usually have a ball on the top of the shifter. I have a Ford customer who called it a lightning rod LOL I said no it's a ramrod and it has has a ball on it...

Yeah, they work the same but they are much smaller in size so they fit better in the car.

If my junk ever runs again, I have one set up to go in. I’m this >< close to just selling it all. The fun has stopped way back. The wife and I talked about it last night.

Since the pistons are out, I can get the compression down to 10.5:1, take a bunch of cam out of it, put it back together and fire sale the thing.

When the fun stops, it’s time for the junk to go, and it’s about that time.
