When I converted my R11 to a floor shift for my 38 I had to add a tab to the 1st R shift fork to push a rod inside the tranny case(my tranny doesn't have an external lockout switch) and so far in 3 years I've never had any trouble going into reverse. The only odd thing that I've had happen is that sometimes if I shut off the car and leave it in gear it will roll away
If the dash od cable knob is pushed in you will be in "freewheeling" mode. If when parked you leave knob in and the transmission selector in any forward gear the car can roll. If you put it in reverse (with the cable knob in) you will have a direct connection to the engine and the freewheeling is locked out (with properly working internal plunger). Probably best to lockout od manually with cable pulled out when parking.
