The base is 11-1/4 X 3-1/8 (5/8 thin wall square) . Really light weight.
The base was made to raise the handle assy just high enough to clear the floor crossmember hump when in the down position. Plenty of room behind the shifter too. It will sit offset on the tunnel to the left side. Balance and slack adjustments easily done just behind the lever. The 914 cable ends (interior side -look like little stirups) lock right into the half moon block with no mod needed. Enough room for the cables to make an easy bend at the firewall, run across the inside of the firewall to each long and out. The exit route will have a firewall grommet seal like this on each side. Can easily fab a trim cover over the top to make it sano. If you notice the photo with the trailing arm close by the cable was connected to the caliper for test fitting. Attached image(s)
