Thanks for the comments guys, Welcome Tom! (TestPoint)

June "the V8 Volvo nationals". LOL

Today I am thinking about how to attack the shift linkage. Another Volvo
Explorer swaper (who is way ahead of me) used a Mustang 3.8 cable.
Today I priced a new Ford cable, $273 dollars ! Uh NO ! Looks like I will try
my Hurst shifter cable thats for my Cutlass for length and go up or down as needed. Lots of universal cables or the wrecking yard.

I have shift linkage but it would be smack in the way of the speedo cable.
Hope to be back soon with progress pictures.
