Can anyone tell me the proper orientation of the shifter for a manual transmission.  I'm working on a 73Z, converting to a manual from an automatic.  The manual trans is from a 72Z.  Since I never saw the shift lever installed I need to be sure I'm installing it properly.  All the fisch and fsm pics show a straight lever.  Attached is a photo of how I think it should be installed.  Can anyone verify ?  Thanks
