As some of you may know I have started to develop a line of parts that will be branded under my new company Finch Performance. There are several parts in the works as I write this, but I wanted to post up a few that are available now. All of these parts have been developed from a need that I found while working on my own car or customer cars. This is not something I am doing to try and retire on, so will not be giving up the day job anytime soon. These are just great parts that fill a niche with the goal being to continue to build the Finch brand beyond the TV personality and racing stuff.

The newest part is a Billet Shifter Ring and Boot assembly. These are machined from billet aluminum and come with a laser cut weld in mounting ring to trim out your transmission tunnel, a custom sewn boot, and stainless button head screws. These are available in 3 finish options. Kits are oversized to fix the common issue of a mutilated shifter opening caused by 30 plus years of sheet metal screws and are large enough to allow the removal of most 4,5,& 6 speed shifter assemblies, including the extra large T56 Magnum, from inside the vehicle to aid in transmission removal.

Introductory price on these is $195 for the Kit plus shipping.

The Finch Billet dual chambered vent canister has been out for a while now and several of you on here have purchased them. These are cut from solid billet and allow the venting of both your rear axle and your fuel tank in the same unit. The chambers are sealed from each other to prevent cross contamination and come with a laser cut drill template to aid in installation. These are designed to mount on your trunk floor and they vent under the vehicle so no worries on fuel smells inside the vehicle.

These sell for $219 each plus shipping

Next up are Toe Plates to make checking and setting your toe at the track or your garage easy and a one man job. These are designed so that they will set against the wheel on their own and have a cutout at the bottom to accommodate the bulge from where the tire makes contact on the surface. This slight bulge can cause inaccurate measurements when using the common flat toe plate.

These sell for $95 a pair plus shipping

Coming soon are Finch rear spoilers for 63 to 67 Novas and 70 to 73 Camaros as well as lower quarter panel diffusers for a complete rear aero package, a complete lower dash cap assembly for 2nd gen Camaros that will let you run billet vent registers and the billet a/c control knobs and billet aluminum washers that range from a 10/32 machine screw to 3/8 oversized washers to be used where the fenders mount on the firewall and cowl.

My new website is www.finchperformance.com (http://www.finchperformance.com/) and you can order these parts on the website if you have a PayPal account. If you want to use a CC shoot me a PM or email me at [email protected]

Hi Brian I've got a twist machine adjustable shifter on my gear box. Does your shifter boot work ok with the extra wide base of the adjustable part?

Introducing the latest part over at Finch Performance, These are machined firewall plates to cover up the factory firewall and provide that custom look without welding. They fit 1st and 2nd gen Camaro's as well as 64 to 67 Chevelles. The dimensions are 10 inches tall and 17 inches wide so will fit any flat firewall that can accommodate the size.

They come black or clear anodized and are machined to accept Vintage Air bulkhead fittings. I have the black version in stock and the clear ones are being cut. The price is $260 each shipped to the lower 48 and includes the stainless mounting hardware.

Here is a before and after I did on a 79 Camaro, the results look awesome and the best part was that this greatly reduces the time to clean up the firewall. Start to finish it took a total of 3 hours to achieve the results below.

The shifter that i have in my car now seems to long and sloppy on my t56 magnum. I think its a 10" version.

What is everyone else running? 6" or 8"

He’s super busy it seems. Even on Facebook I either get responses way after the fact or not at all.

Can’t you just place an order on his website? That has worked fine for me in the past.

Yeah I already have the steel portion of the shift book assembly. I just need the bezel and boot so I was hoping to find a way to get a hold of him.
