Re: slapstick shifter

I had a '79 Z28 LM1 with the TH350 tranny 27 years ago so my memory is a little foggy. I recall the slapstick function is used only for upshifts. You manually put it into first gear (D1). As you accelerate and the rpms are where you want it just slap the shift lever to the right. It should upshift to the next gear only and so on until you get to DRIVE(D). If it does not go to first manually or stay there then you may have a problem with the shift linkage cable or shifter.
