B&M has just released a new product to allow simplified
installation of their shifters in Rear Engine Dragsters. The
Quick Disconnect and Cable Extension will eliminate the need
for extremely long cables and installation difficulties. Keep in
mind the longer the cable the more backlash you will
encounter causing adjustment problems.
The cable routing for this recommended installation is to use
a standard B&M Pro Stick intended for front cable exit (80701,
80706, 80702). Do not use B&M Pro Stick #80703 with this
cable routing recommendation. Determine the shifter mounting location allowing for the cable to exit the rear of the shifter.
Anchor the cable at the location shown in fig. 1 (This location
is critical for proper shifter operation). Route the cable back
to the transmission. Drill a 17/32” hole in the rear motor plate
at the location shown in fig. 2. Remove the rubber boots and
one of the jam nuts from the cable and guide the cable
through the hole in the motor plate. Reinstall the jam nut
and rubber boots. Tighten the jam nuts. Screw the red end
of the cable extension to the cable end. Install the Quick
Disconnect to the transmission lever, be sure to use the correct hole in the lever! (For B&M Pro Stick installations the
hole to use is 1.875” from the center from the lever shaft.
This is the hole marked “H”). Tighten the jam nuts onto the
lever. Screw the coupler onto the red cable extension.
Place the shifter in low gear, move the transmission lever
to low gear. Spin the cable extension on the cable end to
allow the Quick Disconnect to snap onto the pivot ball on the
transmission lever. Move the shifter through all the gears
while checking the adjustment for proper indexing of the
shifter and transmission detents.
Be sure to follow the manufacturers adjustment procedure for each shifter.
