I went through two short stick b/c of the this. I ditvhed the stock stock the 5.0 came with and picked up a ls1speed short stock with an angle put into it. My first straight stick looked liked that.

the short sticks that are not angled feel that way, throw the stocker back on(stick) and buy a umi short stick

I have been using the stock stick that came with mine [short sticks look cool but slow down your shifts] and I don't think I ever felt like it was in the wrong place. but then again it is angled to the left.

I like the stick the 5.0 came with. Cut it down to the length you want. It has more than enough threads to do that.

I 100% agree with Wrencher. I tried using the WS6store short stick with my Pro 5.0 but I hated it. It looked completely off and made shifting tough due to placement of the gears. My reverse rubbed the console as well. So I cut over an inch off the threads on the stock 5.0 stick and put that on.. I love it.
