Re: [Chevelle-list] 4 Speed Shifter Hump - 66 Chevelle

Larry-  After 40 years, the original carpet in mine came out in pieces and chunks.  The reproduction carpet I ordered fits nicely however, and I did not specify anything when I ordered it.   Devin ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Shouse To: The Chevelle Mailing List Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2006 8:18 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] 4 Speed Shifter Hump - 66 Chevelle Thanks for sharing your experience Devin. After you installed the hump, how did the carpet fit?   Thanks, Larry Shouse ----- Original Message ----- From: Devin To: The Chevelle Mailing List Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2006 10:33 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] 4 Speed Shifter Hump - 66 Chevelle Larry-- You can use the big hurst shifter boot and it will cover the hole, but it's not a big deal to install the 4 speed hump.  I installed one in my car a couple of years ago while the tranny was out.  It will only fit in one place.  I found I did have to open it up a little to work with the Hurst shifter, but it makes for a much cleaner installation.   Devin ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Shouse To: Chevelle List Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2006 7:00 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] 4 Speed Shifter Hump - 66 Chevelle I've cut the floor for my 4 speed shifter and the tranny is in place. I have a Hurst Competition Plus shifter. I do not have a center console, although I would like to get one some day when everything else is done with the car.   My question -   1.    Do I need to get the shifter hump if I want to get the shifter boot to fit/seal properly?     2.    If so, are there carpets available to accommodate the hump?   I would prefer to just carpet over the floor as is and install a shift boot over it if I can get away with it...   Thanks, Larry Shouse
