Power doesnt matter when it comes to the shifter, its how hard you pull the lever. I bent my shift fork when the transmission was behind a stock 5.0 hitting second leaving my house. Treat it nice when you shift and it will return the favor.
I'm pretty gentle, but will probably go ahead and put a shifter with stops on it...anyone have a good shifter to recommend? Whatever shifter it is, I want to put that retro 67 lever on it for that factory look (and i like how far back it comes so I can keep my seat to shift)
One more question, do you have to have the shifter installed before you put it in the car? I have read threads where they say you can't put it in with the shifter out of the car.
Ihave had my non WC for over 8 years and its held up fineI dont think the Non world Class will hold up for very long and you will be unhappy with the "granny" first gear.
Sorry to hear about this...

Well i finally got my replacement transmission in, so far so good. Its a 199 on the tag which suggests 90-91 v8 world class with the proper sized input shaft, it shifts good (in the box) and all seems to be there and accounted for. Anyway, I will repost whenever I get it in...may be a month, may be a year, but the guy ended up doing good on the deal.
