Not sure what the Ford shifter unit bracket looks like - may not have been a ready made source to move it forward on the transmission. I suspect (maybe someone can correct me) that 427 engine transmission assemblies came from Ford with a shifter on them. I guess it was simpler to reverse the handle than cobble up a new mount plate, modify the rods, etc.
