I THINK it was B&M that made the first one. At any rate, here is one on Racin Junk.

Look in the transmission components catalog. The company is in York PA.

I ran one of these in I think 67. Art Carr built it as a replacement for a blown 727.
that was behind my MW.
A guy talked me into it but it was a mistake.
Couldn't hookup and never could cut a good light. I couldn't get used to it
and sold it in 68. That thing sure was fun when it shifted though, First time I think it was Lions, it scared the crap out of me, the car tried to switch lanes when it went to Second.
