Basically, you're saying there's no hole in the floor for the manual shifter to go through?

If that's the case, you'll need to find an E-Series body (even one with an auto will do) at the wreckers to get the measurements for it. Unless, someone on here has them already. You'll need to drill a series of small holes to remove that part of the tunnel.
