    My Kilduff has a pretty simple reverse lockout, the red knob.

    IMG_3545.jpeg Perfect That’s what I’ll do for now, then this winter either modify the gates or buy a new shifter
    Thanks

    It’s a sickness I tell ya @RodStRace but I enjoy a challenge. For now I just want to get the car up and running. I’ll do something similar to what @swade41 posted for a reverse lock out. At present my main concern is knocking or shifting into R. When I start adding power I’ll have to think about more positive shifts. I suspect at present the best acceleration may be achieved by simply leaving in Drive.

    I've seen something as simple as one of those lock hasps used. Flip it over once in gear.
    Truly low buck!

    Only issue I had with my BM Pro stick is the aluminum trigger wore out in 6 months of use. It was getting egged out and I couldn’t engage 3rd, reverse or park. Made one from steel and it’s been perfect for 8 years. Great shifter.

    There seem's to be a Lot of going On
    with that Kilduff shifter & there other
    models , I seen onetime in a pic , Thought it was a "One Off" , then seeing its actually being marketing / made.
    I am curious to see How the working are under the plate ,,, Definitely seems more complex , Distraction
    & moving parts than the
    Old lightning rods of the 80s by Hurst & in some of the Hurst 442 for automatics.
    Nothing Like a
    True Lenco Lighting Rods before Air pods
