Race shift

Post by bigr250 »

Quick question to the aficionado's on the board.

I've still not been close enough to a Firestorm to check, but from photo's I've seen it looks like a simple job of flipping over the shift arm on the end of the selector shaft to achieve 'race shift' of 1 up 5 down.

Is this the case or will it need a bit more modification? It looks like the clutch slave cyl' might be in the way, if indeed it is the clutch slave? :eh:

Thanks in advance.

Ross.

Should work, you might need a slightly longer rod is all
However, chances are you'll be fitting rearsets anyway so it will be easier if that's the case.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
