I tried on my firebird, but found that there is an overlap in shifter positions so you couldn't shift with something like that on there.
I eventually just made a surrounding shift plate.

I wanted to do the same thing, but I don't think the T-56's design lends itself to a shift gate. I was going to design a template with Plexiglass, and when tested, have a machine shop cut in stainless. It would look sick though, please post if you figure it out, and I'll buy one if you make 2. PM me if it works out!

The Italians do it by using narrow shift rods....limp like linguini (or linguine for those of you who care about the spelling) not like our stout American shift rods....

it can still be done tasteful...especially if it's a shorter stick so you barely see it
