options from front to rear on the transmission.
If your vehicle already has an opening in the tunnel for the shifter and the engine is installed in the vehicle,
measure from the rear face of the engine block to the center of your existing shifter opening. If your engine
is not yet installed in the vehicle, measure from the engine mounts to the center of the existing shifter open-
ing instead.

NOTE:Ifmountingtheshifterallthewayforwardon a 700-R4 or a 4L60, using the four bolt holes at the very
front of the main plate, a bell crank kit (Lokar Part No. S-6999*, sold separately) will be required. Fig. 5
(*S-6999 is for a mechanical speedometer output only – if your transmission has an electronic speedometer output
and you need a bell crank kit, call Lokar for assistance)
