16in TH350 Cable Operatd Trans Shifter

The 16in TH350 cable operated trans shifter is a purpose-built manual shift solution for hot rod builders and classic car enthusiasts upgrading to TH350 automatic transmissions. This shifter bridges the gap between vintage aesthetics and modern drivetrain upgrades, allowing drivers to retain mechanical cable actuation while enjoying the reliability and performance of a three-speed automatic. Whether you're restoring a muscle car, building a street rod, or converting an older vehicle to modern powertrain technology, this cable-operated shifter provides the direct mechanical control that many traditionalists prefer over electronic systems.

Designed specifically for TH350 transmission compatibility, this 16-inch shifter operates through direct cable actuation, eliminating the need for complex electronic linkages or computer controls. The cable-operated design ensures precise gear selection—Park, Reverse, Neutral, and Drive—with a mechanical feedback that seasoned drivers appreciate when modifying their vehicles. At 7.34 lbs and measuring 8.5 x 6.5 x 26.5 inches, the shifter is engineered to fit within tight engine compartments common in custom hot rods and vintage restorations. The robust construction handles repeated shifting cycles under varied driving conditions, from cruise nights to spirited highway performance.

This shifter is ideal for mechanics and DIY builders customizing vehicles with TH350 transmissions, particularly in applications where factory column shifters or floor pans don't accommodate modern automatic hardware. Installation requires basic fabrication skills and understanding of cable routing through the vehicle's interior and firewall—tasks well within reach of experienced automotive enthusiasts. The 16-inch cable length provides flexibility for custom console mounting, steering column placement, or dash-mounted shifter configurations. Proper cable adjustment and transmission kickdown linkage setup ensure smooth operation and correct transmission behavior across all gear ranges, making this component essential for any serious TH350 retrofit project.
