Gotcha, just wanted to make sure

When I removed mine, and did my filter a few weeks before, I thought that the 2 bolt holes for the bracket were different sized than the rest. I know the heads were, but I thought that the thread was as well. If not, then I'll have to x3 for checking to make sure it's in the right holes; however, the space between the holes I think is more than 1/4" but closer to 1-3/4". Then again, the slack in the cable itself could account for that 1-1/2" difference. *shrug* Hope I don't have any problems when I get around to putting mine in heh

Heh.. supposedly the cable is adjustable (according to haynes manual). I have yet to prove this. My friend just took the lever on the gear selector on the tranny and cut/welded it to the right ratio lmao. Now everything is A-okay.
