Will the Hurst Mystery Shifter (293-3097) work with the 3 speed with OD transmission? The box says it is for the 9 bolt, straight bottom side cover, which my FIL has on the car but nothing about the OD. I have heard somewhere that if we were to put a floor shifter in the 55 we would need the Hurst Mystery Shifter. Will anything else out there work?
here is an ebay link to the 293-3097

Dan, I think I read a post somewhere that the overdrive solenoid is in the way.

Scroll down and read the T85/T86 thread. It can be done with some creative fiddling. There's a link in the thread to a past thread where a guy did it, complete with some pix.

The main difference on Hurst applications is the mounting bracket and the shift arms. The shifter itself is the same. If you are creative you can make the bracket and arms work.
