I called some specialized AMC junkyards that I Googled and one told me to call a trans shop in Anaheim and they had (1) AMC tail housing from a lot of new T5 parts that they bought years ago. When I asked and started to explain the guy said, "Hold on a second" and I waited about 4 minutes and he got back on the phone and said, "I think I got one here". He read the part # and sure enough. He also had the shift rod and shifter block and included them with it at a pretty decent price.
Now I have to see what I can do to get the shifter to the left and not have to trim the floor. They make those custom side mount ones for the TKO's in Tigers and Corvettes. If I knew exactly how they did it, I could machine the side of the shifter hole and fab a box to mount it right next to it. I have some ideas on how to do it, but I don't want to mess up the AMC tail housing on a failed attempt. Any knowledge is appreciated.
