Header Headache Help - Second-Gen Firebird Problem Solver
7 - Lock-Rod Limbo
Whether it's equipped with an automatic or manual transmission, all Second-Gen Firebirds feature an upper gearshift control rod, which locks the steering column when the floor-mounted shifter is placed into Park (automatic), or Reverse (manual). Many headers do not provide sufficient clearance to retain this rod or its linkage. It can easily be removed and the column left in the "Lock" position, but drivers must be aware that at any time during operation, the ignition key can be manually rotated to the lock position, which will subsequently kill the engine and lock the steering column.
