Cable Shifter

Can this cable shifter kit be used with the stock Pantera shift lever?

Doug,

No, it uses a different setup. I'm guessing you want to keep the look of your car with the gated shifter?

Yes, you are correct. I never saw the details of the SAAC shifter set up installation and although their shift handle assembly is pretty it was also the deterrent.

It is entirely possible that I overthink everything but a leopard can't change it's spots.

What I need to see is a detailed installation manual along with the additional parts I need like the cables. Then I need to digest it. Probalby score some Rolaids for the indigestion? Then OOO, OOO, OOO! I need this thing happens? Sad but true.

Apparently I am overly anal - lictic?

Doug,

I can send you instructions if you'd like.

Corey

If you could send, or post here, the "instruction/installation manual" in a pdf file that would be helpful. I'd guess that I'm not the only one interested in seeing it.

I'd like to see pictures of what the finished installed shifter looks like in the console also.

What is the thread on the shift knob that you are using?

I’m interested, but I’d also like to retain the original, or at least original looking shift lever and gate.

Well… I think:

let’s see it here..

I'll post pictures once things are updated.

Looking forward to it!

Hi Cory,

I bought the ZF adapter plate and cables for my Superformance GT40 from Scott a couple years ago, and never used them. Will the cable length work in a Pantera? I am now going to install it in my 72 Pantera so just need the shifter portion. Got this picture from the CNC website. How much just the the shifter? Thanks, Ed

Ed,

The cable lengths should be 80" long for the standard configuration. I have had feedback that a 78" and an 80" work too. You can use an 80" and 84" cable length as well by flipping the shifter assembly.

The Pantera cable shifter alone is $650.

Corey

Any updates on the shifter and availability?

Shifters have started to ship out to customers. I move from a shortage of one part to a shortage of another as I fill orders.

I estimate a few week turnaround time if you want to get one at the moment. I will post some pictures of the shifter soon.

Corey, Lloyd Butfoy says a ZF with a cable shifter works better if lighter springs are installed on the ZF’s cross shaft. Have you, or anyone you know of, tried this mod.?
Thanks!

David,

Not that I know of. I asked Scott and he said he had heard of it but not seen it actually done.

Here are some recent pictures of our newly updated ZF adapter for the cable shifter, in a car built by Full Throttle Panteras:

The ZF adapter in these pictures is polished. Our current offering comes anodized. Here's the adapter without cables installed yet. The rear piece has two threaded holes for the reverse light switch in development.

Thank you for the pictures but I'm still waiting to see the installation manual first.

The reverse light switch is now standard on the cable shifter. I am currently out of stock on Pantera shifters but should have everything back in stock by the end of December.

Got mine today.. Thanks Corey!

Are you ever going to post a "installation manual" on line that I can download" First before I buy this kit so I know what is entailed?
