[Chevelle-list] looking for a part TH350 trans

[Malibu]

Harlan, what you are describing is called a "detent lever". Sometimes referred to as a rooster tail. It is secured to the manual shaft and it's function is to select the gear you want. It also has a rod connected to it to engage the parking pawl. I'm pretty sure you won't find a new one. It's a part that never wears out. If your missing one I would suggest you try a trans shop for a used one. You may get lucky and find a new one. But if it were me, I would just go to a junk yard and remove one from a junk trans. Take the manual shaft and detent as one piece. Believe it or not, that's a hardened finishing nail holding it in place.
