The more you approximate the way Ken can shift, the more problems you will have with the TKO. BTW Ken passed on a few years ago but his car and his shifting are impressive, even today.
Here is the video (below), a little eye and ear candy for the racer in you.

WOW !!! Very Cool !!!
If his belvedere is one of the original super stocks, 1 of 100, it is a pretty rare piece of history, especially the 4-speeds which I think they made about 10 of them. Acid dipped body panels, bumpers, etc, aluminum head hemi !!!
