I'm assuming an auto trans here... most aftermarket shifters are cable operated. |

Nope all B&M shifters I have done has a cable and a transmission lever that B& M supplys with the shifter that replaces the stock transmision lever you must use it instead of the stock transmision lever on the trans. But there could be something special out there i doint know about. Thanks Ron Parker.  It Aint Over Until I Win |

I have seen many people use a B&M or Hurst shifter and use the stock console around it.

ok so what would i do when going from a collumn to floor shift without having to find a collumn out of a floor shift car? |

Well, the simplest thing to do would be to get a shifter with its own mini console with gear indicator. They are all cable operated so you will simply remove the factory linkage between the lower end of the column and the transmission. Also remove the shifter lever from the column and you're good to go. If you don't like the look of the column with the vestiges of the old shifter then you'll have to swap the column for one from a floor shift car. |

Make sure you get a shifter with a reverse lockout. |

You'll have to defeat the shifter - ignition interlock and steering wheel lock mechanism. |
