If you need the instructions I can copy the appropriate pages out of the
'84 Camaro factory service manual, that I have laying around, that
describe how to adjust the linkage on a Saginaw 4-speed. That is what I
used to set up my Hurst shifter since I bought it used with no
instructions. I can either mail or fax them to you - possibly even scan
and email them if i can get the scanner on the other computer fired up.
