The Rivergate lit includes a new custome cable with right angle drive. At least mine did but I asked for the whole Enchilada. They do sell those items seperately and if I recall it was only like another $125 for the rt angle and new longer cable.

Just a quick follow up question.
Is it normal for the shifter to be a little left of center?

Any other sources for the cable?
$125 seems a little steep unless it indeed is a custom made cable.

Yes, in fact I had to grind a bit of the lip off of the aperture in the tunnel so that it didn't go "clank" when shifting into 1st and 2nd.

Yeah, I used the engine lift, to gently persuade it away from the yoke.
I'm not ~that~ far over, but enough that is was grinding the yoke when pushing it.
Thanks Trevor, I feel better about that then.

I was wondering about the position of the shift lever myself. Good to hear that's where it's "supposed" to be.

Bruce, what slave/master combination are you using in your car?

If you do the Datsun 5-speed conversion, a good way to re-center the shifter and use the Sprite knob is to cut down the Datsun shifter leaving a 1" nub. Then measure to taste and cut off the Sprite shifter. Weld the Sprite shifter to the RIGHT side of the datsun stub and you'll have everything back in line. Paul did this for me and it works great.

I did the same thing Glen.

Trevor, I'm using the slave that Rivergate provides and a new clutch master. I'm converting my car to dual brake lines, and a clutch master.

OK, I'm using the 3/4" brake/clutch combo unit and I'm not sure what to use for a slave. I have a nissan 3/4" slave cylinder that I'm going to try make work. It was only $12 at my local NAPA so I thought it would be worth a shot.

When the tranny was in my Midget I had the stock clutch MC and 1275 slave, and it was an easy pedal, but you had to but it all the way on the floor.
