Pistol grip shifter

I`ve been reading for years that the 71-b without con. is the one that works with a body, buckets and bench. I have a 67 cuda w bench, 69 cuda 833. hurst comp. plus. Wanting one for years, I broke bad and bought from summit. It would not clear the bench:angry7:, about 1-1/2" to low? Being the determined kind of guy I am8) I welded a lower portion of another old shifter. It gets nowhere near the dash and lays right at seat. I like!.. another deal with my hurst does`nt emerge in center of hump hole, it`s toward the back. I played hell adapting rods to clear crossmember, but it works8)

If using that hurst shifter. Which shifting mechanisim and rods do you buy from summit. I tried looking and asked a guy who sells on ebay but he had no idea.
