Do you have a manual valve body? I wouldn't throw it in a car with a stock valve body just so you can manual shift.

I wanted to get an after market shifter on my FLT trans just for astetic reasons. Can this shifter be used so that it just comes out of the stock slit in the console without butchering the console?
