Anyone here running a Kilduff Lightning Rod shifter?

Stumbled upon these while doing some shifter research.

Dude sounds like a bit of a nut, but the shifters look to be solid :cool:




I'm curious about reverse/park lock-out though :confused:


Doesn't look like there's a second action to put the main lever into reverse or park...


Also, could you actually use that 3rd lever to go from 3rd to neutral at speed or would you have to slow down first since it will have to go through 2nd and 1st before hitting neutral with a reverse manual valve body :confused:

Funny that you ask about these today. I've always thought a set of LightningRod shifters would be a cool and different addition to my 76 Cordoba, already a fairly unique car. I was looking on eBay just this morning at crappy, overpriced used units (first time in over a year I've looked at em, that's why its kinda funny that you brought it up today) and stumbled across Kilduff's website. Check it out, it may answer some or all of your questions.
