I had a T10 4 speed in my Ranchero with a bench. All I had to do was heat the base of the Hurst shifter and bend it forward a little to clear the seat. Some of the shifters have a bolt on handle, mine didnt. If you can get one, Hurst used to, and probably still does, offer all kinds of different shaped handles to fit all kinds of applications.
