I need help bad installing a MGW shifter in my Dark Horse

[GooberDH]

It's the 10mm bolt on top the transmission. I unbolted the transmission support and let the transmission drop as far as it will go but it's still not enough to give the bolt room to slide all the way out. I can't even access the center driveshaft support bolts because there's a heat shield in the way with no apparent way to remove it. It's looking like I'm gonna have to get my car towed to I don't even know where anyone around me would be willing to finish the install.

I'm so mad. 8 hours I've been at it, about 6 just for that bolt. I loosened my exhaust clamps where my Steeda H Pipe meets the muffler pipe and behold, trans dropped enough for the bolt to fall right out. I swear to God this shifter better feel better than sex . For anyone else looking into installing one of these: Disconnect the exhaust hangers for the mufflers if you don't have a resonator delete and you'll probably be able to install this thing in 45 minutes like the people at MGW.

The install is way easier with a lift and a second pair of hands. Glad you got it. It makes a big difference on the MT 82. On the Tremec I'm sure it will be better than stock. It will be worth it once you start shifting.
