I need to back up a step here. Before the grenade can go on the shifter, the swivel base that mounts in the top of the transmission and the rubber boot has to go on first since it can't fit over the grenade and the same goes for the canvas shift boot. Once those 2 items are on the grenade can be threaded on and since the main wire is poking out the top and not snaked through the hollow stem yet there is no twisting of the wire.

After the grenade is tightened then the loose end of the main wire can be inserted into the grenade from the top and plumbed through the hollow stem leaving a small loop inside the grenade as the wire goes up from the switch, bends into a loop and then heads down into the shaft. So no twisted wire and since I'm actually able to use G.I. 14 ga. Prestolite wire (which is way cool) it's a good thing that I don't have to twist the wires!
