Turbo Action 70002B CHEETAH SCS Shfter - Manual (Page 2)

Part #70002B 2 6/89,7/98,2/01,5/06
FIRST, READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, THEN PROCEED WITH EACH STEP
INDIVIDUALLY.
Use Lifter Only To Go into Reverse. The unique reverse lock-out system requires only that
you lift the reverse lockout mechanism with your two fingers while placing into reverse with
the same hand. Note: Do NOT lift mechanism for any other shift!
CAUTION: In a race it is imperative that the forward gears be precise in relation to the shifter.
CAUTION! CAUTION!
Be absolutely sure that vehicle is in park or neutral position before
attempting to start motor, and be sure that park/neutral safety switch is
adjusted properly.
SPECIAL NOTE: Sanctioned dragstrips require functional Neutral Safety Switch mandatory.
STEP # 1: The Shifter is preassembled and only requires locating a suitable spot to mount
it and hooking up the necessary bracket to hang cable to side of the ransmission.
STEP # 2: If mounting shifter on thin floor pan, such as a Super Gas or Econo-Altered,
would suggest putting a thin steel strapping behind the floor pan to offer a
support where the shifter mounting bolts go through. Be sure to locate shifter in
a position which will be comfortable for the driver to shift. After drilling holes in
floor, start two rear bolts and make finger tight. Two front bolts leave out at this
time; as you will be installing your Park/Neutral Start Switch Mounting Bracket
later.
SPECIAL NOTE: The G.M. Shifter #70002B has the cable exiting out the rear of the control
towards the rear end. It then makes a 180 turn back towards engine.
The cable should in most cases go under the cross member and then
mount to the transmission.
STEP # 3: The cable included with this shifter is very unique. You can make many tight
radius turns and it will still work smoothly. It also is very sturdy even though it
is highly flexible.
STEP # 4: When routing the cable, be sure to keep away from rotating parts (driveshaft,
u-joints, etc.) and hot parts (headers, mufflers, etc.). NOTE: On installation if
you will come through floor pan as close to the driver’s side of the hump as
possible, the cable will then lie snug against the side of hump and will be 4-5
inches from the driveshaft. If necessary, use some plastic ties to keep cable from
moving around.
STEP # 5: The #70050A G.M. Pan Cable Bracket is completely universal with no
compromise. NOTE: Fig. #1 which gives bracket location on transmission pan rail
for the Powerglide, Turbo 200, Turbo 250, Turbo 350 and Turbo 400.
STEP # 6: Before bolting transmission Pan Cable Bracket to transmission install the
u-shaped Cable Clamp and Shim into proper set of holes (See Fig. #2).
