Re: 65 Shift Cable Adapters



It's no consolation, Bill, but remember, the '65 cars engaged "park" from the shift linkage, rather than the separate park lever and cable on the '64 and earlier cars.  '65 linkage needed a different way to engage "park" thus the extra bump.

5 vs 6 bumps huh? Well $#!T. Guess what I'm doing tonight!!!

Haven't seen the article, but I am aware about the late model input shaft swap issue. Already did it.

On the other hand though, I believe Frank Lupo's Dynamic Converters could custom build an early input shaft converter if someone wanted to keep it.

That has been my experience, I believe one has 6 stops and the other has 5 stops, that's what I seem to remember.  Anyone else had this experience and gotten away without changing coxcomb/adapter?  Bill, you could always spit in the face of danger and give it a try, you have a 50/50 chance of it working, but I'm sure it wont.
 
This is way to late for you, but, are you aware of this article?

So let me get this straight...
1. the push button cable adapter and coxcomb (nut attachment) must be used together and CANNOT be used with a console cable setup.
2. the console shift cable adapter and coxcomb (clip attachment) must be used together and CANNOT be used with a pushbutton cable.

Sounds like I'm going to have to pull my old console shift 727 valve body apart ans swap the cable adapter and coxcomb into my new trans?

What's so different about the parts that the systems won't interchange??

Two steps forward, 1 step back,..

When I change the coxcombs I use a small pocket screwdriver that the tool guys giveaway, while sliding the loosened coxcomb up use the screwdriver to release the pressure on the ball. 
 
Reinstalling it, I insert the spring and with a good dab of grease to stick the ball to the end of the spring.  Using the same screwdriver I angle in and compress the ball & spring into place, while pushing the coxcomb into place.
 
It's an easy procedure, just a little daunting the first time.  You will probably launch the ball a couple of times, so no worry you wont be the first.  (-:

The Pushbutton coxcomb (SP) has to be used with Pushbutton shifters, and the same it true with the Console Shifter.  Not interchangeable.  It is an easy swap of the coxcomb's, or the whole Valvebody.  Just be aware of the spring loaded ball that will come flying out unless you contain it when replacing the coxcomb!

As I'm reviewing the shift cable adjustment info on the 62-65 website, I came across a photo via Google that shows different adapter for 65 push-button (held in with a nut) and console shift cars (held in with a clip).

I happened to notice that the trans I had rebuilt has the push-button adapter in it vs the console type.

Is it going to screw up things with my adjustments? or are they interchangeable?
