I got an 83 Z28 with a 70's 350 block and a TH350. It had a 700r4 in it, and the guy switched over to a TH350. It uses a 700r4 shifter and cable. The shifter cant reach PARK so I have to start it in REVERSE. Is the cable too short? Do I have to use a different shifter? Do I have to get a different cable bracket?

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Also, my speedo doesnt work. It's mechanical(cable). I also need to get a speedo gear for the tranny. Anyone know what speedo gear I need? Gears are stock, motor and tranny are different.

 

you need to know your gear ratio to figure out what drive and driven gers you need for the speedo. the shift cable and trans lever needs adjusted

 

my rear gear ratio is 3.23s which came stock with the car. So where do I go from there?

For the tranny, i dont think that the cable can be adjusted. Should I just get a longer one?

 

You can adjust it a slight amount but you would be better off robbing a shift cable/shifter/consol selecter from a 200c 3 speed car or going aftermarket depending on your budget.

 

So do I use:

TH200C Shifter
TH200C Cable
TH200C Cable Bracket?

Is that all I need?

 

i had the same problem with my th350.. i just bought a hurst promatic 2 and that fixed my problem.. they arnt too expensive like 100 bucks..

 

A 700-r4 shifter and cable will work fine with a TH350 as long as you use TH350 shift lever on the tranny and TH350 cable bracket bolted to the tranny's pan rail. OD on the shifter will be D on the tranny and so on. You could use a 200C shifter from an '82 Camaro, but finding one is probably impossible. Aftermarket
shifter is probably the way to go.
