The "79 trans you are thinking about using, is it the plate type shifter or a ratchet top?
If you have seen the '79 trans you mentioned then you already know.
It's just that in '79 I believe the plate shifter was introduced midyear.
If it is a ratchet top, it would involve a minor shift linkage change.

Don't know about mid-year but, we have a '79 fxs here in the shop... 1200, with cow-pie...BIL has a '79 FLH, cow-pie.
Trying to remember seeing a post '78 with a ratchet top... not that I recall...
But, it is best to know what one owns...
