Nice job on the shift gate, Piney. The only time I ran into that interference problem (on a '73), I bevel-cut the gate areas you cut out, on a 45 degree angle, for lever clearance.

On my personal Pantera (a 72-1/2 L), the shift-stick rubbing was so bad I made a new finger-less gate. The plated gate fingers are harder than the shift stick and will wear a notch in it; fixed the notch with stainless weld that then polished up good enough that I didn't need to replate the stick. I've seen wear notches that broke the shift stick.
