Column to Floor shift conversion
I'm a little off track with this subject since I'm currently changing my rear end to an 8.8 but...Saw this somewhere and had to check it out online. Has anybody converted their 3 speed column shift to a floor shift using either the Hurst or Mr. Gasket conversion kit? I found the installation directions online and was just wondering about this.

Looks like it could work, I have read the Mr Gasket kit is a little weak compared to The Hurst kit though. Mr. Gasket kit sells for around $30 and the Hurst kit for around $200
