Yep follow guide above to keep the standard gear linkage. You'll need to get creative to ditch the linkage though (think that comes out above the rack then)

Check out Peester's WIP thread on here he recently got something done like that. I think you need to join it straight to the selector turret and invert the shifter mechanism (or the gears will be upside down)
