4L60E with no first gear option
I have a 94 z28 with an A4 that came from the factory with no first gear option. I already swapped my 273 gears to 342s. I searched for other threads on this topic and all I could find was threads talking about transmission's completely missing the first gear lol. I was wondering what I have to do to get the first gear option on my trans. Any help is appreciated thanks....

@zfreie: ok I'll have to check that out And do that mod. If u can upload a pic that would be great. Thanks in advance.
And thanks everybody for the replies. I tried Searching for this and couldn't find anything. Only people that had tranny problems and completely missing the gear.dum

I am surprised you did not find anything with a search. The question is a common one. Once you open up the plate on the console, it will be obvious what is blocking the lever from going back to 1st. Just cut the tab off.

I didn't know it was that easy. Thought I had to get a different trans lol. Thanks again for the replies and help. That noise law sucks for us 273 stock guys lol. But I love my 342s i swapped in. Thinking about going to 373s though. Still not sure, read there's not that much of a difference though. O and by the way how do I get the shift **** off? Sorry for the noob question.

here you go, best pictures I could get, and no need for whole console, just the shifter face plate thing.
See the metal stop? you can see the outline of the plastic stop I removed with the putty knife, that is all that prevents you from selecting first. I was frequent to first gear in my car after the mod lol
and I know my cars dirty, last time i cleaned it was a year ago?...
