V-gate woe is....

Ever drive a Ram Rod????
I just did a custom installation of one in a customers 65 Chevelle... But no never tried it... He likes it.. it doesn't work any different than the v-gate except its reverse leaver go's forward instead of backwards... Damn that Muncie has a high first gear!!...
