12 Volt Wiring for 1947 w/ Stepdown

Hi folks,
I'm at the point where I am ready do start connecting linkages and wiring to my '47 C8 Sedan with a 1951 stepdown 232 engine (it's what I had) What I was wondering is if anyone had instructions on how to connevt the shifting linkages to my 232 w/ OD. Seems the shift lever isn't quite long enough. I got the steering already hooked in and I have the cluch and break pedals in as well. Plus I'm not sure what to do about the speedo cable...weather to use the '47 cable or the stepdown one????? I also would like a wring diagram or at least instructions from anyone that has hooked up a step-down engine for 12Volts in a '46-'47 car. I'm sure it's similar to step-down 12V conversions but anything that is particular to '40's Hudsons' I'd like to know.
Thanks ahead of time for any help you cn give,
Hudsonly,
