I dont see the point of shortening your leverage shaft.
the gain you get in shortening is ruined by the amount of increased force necessary to shift because your changing the wrong side of the pivot point.

it does not make a difference at all to me with the height ... it actually makes it a little easier for me .... plus i just have always love the nub look .... there was no "Performance" gain expected when doing this modification.... just personal preference .... also to have something that NO ONE else can / will offer

I wouldn't mind a longer than stock shifter length if it had stock or shorter than stock throws. It would be right near the wheel, like a rally car. I miss Collin McRea.

It actually was a night and day improvement IMO . A much shorter stick makes it less of wobbler with this dumb cable shifter assembly , and firmed up the overall feeling withuot any extra effort to shift .

pclear9061 - Nice job man Mines not quite that short , but I did cut off 1.5" off my B&M stick and re-threaded it so I could use a 4th gen trans am knob .
