I have a 86 Buick Regal with a 78 Olds 350 in it, not sure on the transmission I know its not a turbo though. I need to know if anyone has a complete floor shift assembly or know of which B&M shifter will match up.

here's my thread from the B&M QuickSilver shifter I installed in my GP. viewtopic.php?f=14&t=20509&hilit=+shifter

most aftermarket shifters are simple to adapt to your exisiting setup, even if you have a floor consoul. They also come with a variety of linkages and brackets that adapt to 3spd or 4spd transmissions.

a common shifter used by many of the members on this forum is the B&M Mega... TCI also makes one similar called the StreetFighter. Hurst has some good ones too...

Just for your information I have the hurst version of the b&m starshifter .... Hurst does not make a 4 speed shifter but a lot of B&M ones are upgradeable .... another words if you buy a B&M starshifter for your th350 then in a couple years you decide to put OD in theres no problem the shifter will adapt the hurst will not. So I needed a new shifter for my 2004r so I have a prostick that was from a th350 ... all I did was buy a Z-gate plate and now its a 4 speed auto shifter
I know prolly to much info...
