Modified B&M Shifter
Lastnight I pulled my B&M from my car and cut almost 2" of the top. Everyone seems to think they come too long from the factory, so I decided to modify it a bit. I have always liked the shifter, so figured $15 on a die to thread it wasnt a big deal. Here is a pic threading it (303 SSis a bitch to thread) after that I cut it, then polished/clearcoated the stick. So far I am kind of liking it.

I think that the "smooth" shift has a lot to do with your transmission and not so much the stick. My B&M has been on 2 different transmissions now and the built stage 2 shifts way better than the stock trans ever did.
