LT-1 Questions from former SS owner - Page 2

3. Must have changed it after 2018, my 1LE was clutch only to start.
4. Modify your driving style just a little bit. Or you deserve the skip shift pain for driving that way.

Never heard of a 5th or 6th V8 having reverse up to the left. Only V6s. I've had a 5th SS, 5th ZL1, and my present 6th ZL1. All up to the right. How long has it been since you owned your '16? Sure you don't have a dyslexic memory?

Can you post a photo of the shifter??

OK, I must be wrong on the SS pattern. My LT-1 is definitely up-right for R. I thought it was up-left in the SS (its been 4 yrs.) My bad.

Yeah, R on the SS trims is toward the passenger side and forward like you have now. What were you driving in between the SS and the LT1 trim cars? Maybe your recollection is blending with that? Or maybe you had another manual that you drove for a long time that's blending in with your memory from the Camaro?

From the owner's manual for my '20:

The SS is up and right. The 6 banger is up and left.
