Does anybody know where this kit may be acquired?  I looked up it on Jeg's, called their technical service department to verify the linkage part number and he informed me the linkage was discontinued.  He gave me Hurst/B&M tech service line and the tech guy said that both the shifter and linkage had been discontinued for the 80/81.

Rick Summit carries it.....it's in stock..http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=HUU%2D3910028&view=32&N=700+150+400134+4294822078+4294925046+4294856328+4294908216+4294908189+4294848145&appfilter=1#Application.

Rick, this would be the linkage kit that mates up to your BW T10.... http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=HUU%2D3738616&N=700+400134+4294818554+4294908216+4294856328+115&autoview=sku

Larry, did you possibly install these parts?  I appreciate the reply.  I went round and round talking with Jeg's and Hurst tech service and both Hurst and Summit said the linkage was not available.

Actually.........I have aTHM400 and I'm putting in a B&M Hammer shifter. It's causing major mods to make it fit inside the console. I want it to look almost factory. Anyhow.....Summit claims to have the shifter and linkage in stock. You really need to talk to them directly. I hope it all works out for you. Keep us posted.

Will do, calling them today.  I saw Jeg's part numbers, called tech service, and they said the linkage was not the correct one, but call B&M/Hurst tech service, which I did and he said that Jeg's part numbers would not work and they actually discontinued both products awhile back.

I appreciate it, and I did not want to call them out, but the Eckler phone rep I spoke with said it was made by someone else, and I would rather get the real deal - at this point in time used as Hurst no longer makes either the shifter or the linkage.
