[DeTomaso] Dash 1 ZF Question- Internal shift detents??? Mangusta

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Steve,

It's really not that hard, I'm surprised you've not figured it out yet.

You go the local supermarket and pick up some tri-tip, beer, wine and  
briquettes or gas (depends on how your barbecue grill is powered).

Then you invite all your local Pantera friends over for a world famous  
PCNC Tech Session.

You get your Mangusta shifting and staying in gear, the rest get other  
little things done on their cars they've been meaning to get to.

You've got 24 hours to make it happen.  Ready.... GO!
