shifter handle

[71chargerrtclone]

I was interested in putting a 68-70 Mopar Performance Hurst Pistol Grip Shifter - P4510610 in my 1971 charger that has a console. I have the tremic 5 speed. Will it fit without hitting something?

You'll be shifting from the back seat with that thing

I have a tremec TKO and found that it made a difference not to have the long shifter that would have come with the transmission and been equivalent to what I had with the original transmission. 

What I ended up doing was research on what made a shifter have a small versus big throw and then doing the math to find what would work best.  Then I modified it further.  If I recall, the throw relates to the length of the lever arm, so I had to do some sort of pythagorian type math square root of [(side to side)^2 + (up down)^2 + (front to back)^2] to get the shortest distance, then I chose the shifter that would fit with my seat.  I have a bench seat and different year, so likely different from yours.

Anyway, the long and short of this is, that I bet there are other pistol grip shifter options and you can look for them.  and compare and calculate to get what you like. 

I don't know about the back seat, but I did have a shifter at one point that seemed like it was at shoulder height and was like using a broomstick.  You want to avoid that if possible. 

Good luck,]
