Can’t shift into reverse

I saw an episode of a car show where they had inadvertently put the rod in backwards and it would bind. Just a thought.

also are you sure the shifter is designed for the trans???

It’s not in backwards. The ends are distinctly different. HOWEVER, I would totally do something like that. I assume it’s the correct shifter? It’s a hurst.
