Like I said, try muffler shops. There's bound to be some open. And shitcan the heel shifter, I'll wager that's what caused the damage. I've seen that happen with others. Too much force.A welder is exactly what I'm looking for right now.
I'm also using a heel shifter
We rarely disagree but this time we do. This kind of thing is usually operator error. Not saying it is this time but in general it is.Like I said, try muffler shops. There's bound to be some open.

And therein lies the problem with the heel shifter. Certainly, if one takes care and is gentle, there's no concern with breakage. Bang it with the heel and that invites disaster. No? I know personally of damage caused by the indelicate use of heel shifters. After the repair, I wonder if our OP will continue with his heel shifter.Using too much force will break anything. A lighter touch is needed. I see shifter forks and other internal shifting issues and the first thing I think of is a lead foot banging the shifter when a wood foot would be better.
I never seen a heel shifter on a vic in this part of the world, agree RICZ, force is not good for delicate shifter partsAnd therein lies the problem with the heel shifter.
