i can answer your questions since i have done this...
when i bought my pontiac lt1 6 speed swap, i was waiting to install the trans but got bored so i installed the top console piece (It was a direct swap for the top piece of my automatic console so you dont need to swap out the entire console). It fit like a charm and the boot didnt restrict the the operation of the shifter but the shape of the console does. I couldnt get the car into first gear
lost a race because of that too 
it looked cool tho

Does anyone know where to get a **** like in that pic of the adapter, but maybe in black or red with Z28 engraving or something? I looked on there but only found that blue one.
How had of an install is that adapter? Any cutting or anything? Or pretty much plug and play?

lame idea. your car is an automatic, not a manual. what are you gonna say when someone looks inside of it and says "oh wow, its a manual, thats cool."? um, no... its an automatic...

some people like the position of the ash tray better as a means of mounting switches, or think that it looks alot cleaner with a boot, and some think that it might look stupid with just an aftermarket shift **** and no boot to match. Or atleast thats my view on it.
