    What brand short shifter did you get Evil? I've seen a lot of people say to buy a B&M Replica short shifter but I've never seen a short shifter marketed as a B&M replica.

    dont buy any short shifters, really. Its a waste of money even for the real one.

    The replicas get very sloppy after a few months. Skrap had it on his car and it had enormous play .

    Just pull the stock one out, cut 1.5'' below the threads and make another cut right after the bend. Weld the the two straight pieces together
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    Well if you want a short shifter as short as in MKO's pics, that's the way to do it. I don't have access to welding materials either but I'm sure you could find a shop to do it for you and I doubt it'd cost that much, especially if you make the cuts yourself and then just take it to get welded back together.
