@SpeedThrills , Not intending to sidetrack (but I'm gonna do it anyway!)......what are your shifter problems, mentioned in first post
What shifter are you using, what's wrong with it?
(I hurt a decent 396 pretty badly many years ago, due to "shifter problems".)

No problem, I appreciate the interest. It’s a Hurst quarter stick and it came with the truck that I got this entire drivetrain from. I discovered, that it’s a regular pattern shifter and I have a reverse pattern valve body. The B&M quarter stick type shifter has a plate you can replace for whatever shift pattern you have. You can’t do that with a Hurst quarter stick. I did some grinding and welding and changed mine to a reverse pattern. It works great now, I just haven’t been to the track yet.
Forgive me if you know all of this, maybe someone else will be able to use it down the road.
You had to pull the trigger to go 1st to 2nd, instead of 2nd to 3rd. It would go 1st to 3rd very easily. I think I have that straight!
