thanks Joe,im either going to buy a new affordable shifter or a nice used one that someone is willing to let go at a reasonable price.

I stuck my foot in my mouth. A new Hurst might actually be cheaper, if you can fab a handle.

Cool Ray! 8)
Just tinkering on mine this morning. Check reviews on Mr. Gasket boot, if you need a new one. Buyer beware, don't make 'em like they used to.
Happy New Year!
