B & M Sports Shifter install

Published on 24 March 2022

Picked up a B & M Sports Shifter from Amazon. If you buy one from Amazon and if it shows suggestions that people also bought with this item like a cable & brackets. You won’t need them unless you want to upgrade from what B & M already provides. That is up to you. Didn't totally install the shifter but that will come later. Just wanted to work out the issue with the vehicle starting in all gears.

Thank again for watching and have a good one.

Very nice video thank you for posting. I'll install the same on a 4l80. I Believe it has to work.

I got a question I just got a used shifter like yours and the bracket to the white cable when u bottled it down did the wholes have any threads or just u just send it and make your own threads ?

No 3rd microswitch is bad. Holley needs to get it together. How is the PCM going to know if car is in P/N vs in gear? You need the NSS for ignition/starter, so you can’t use that one and there’s no room
for another switch in the P/N position.

Thank you for providing this instructional video. It helped a lot, as I am considering the same shifter for my 4L60E, however I have a question. I see that you were not able to shift it into 1st gear. I see you only went from D, 3, 2 but no 1st gear. Or did I see that wrong? If you could clarify that, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

I'm about to install this shifter in my 73 Nova with a 350 transmission. I'm aware of the wiring with the neutral safety switch but I'm curious if you have completed your wiring yet? If so I have a couple questions for you. Thanks

Had the same problem with my neutral safety switch. I ended up spraying the transmission coupler bearing with some wd40. Problem solved.

Wait you have a 4-speed transmission and you didn't shift down to first. I think you will burn up that transmission being in 3rd instead of overdrive. I may be wrong, but I thought you only shifted down from drive to second to first. You're missing overdrive.

Is there any way I could use my stock shifter cable it says to but I can't get the cable to bend correctly to be straight on the ford AOD and it has a big eye hole
