Default shifter reccomendations inside

Just like the title "going from an m6 to a th 400" what shifter did you use with a part #. Also what did you have to modify if any to get it to fit in an m6 console.

Thanks

My buddy did a b&m rachet shifter. Had a mechanical engineering buddy build him an alluminum cover plate. It looks awsome and is in an m6 console. Sorry I don't know the part number.

I have heard and seen some people use our Quicksilver, Mega, and Hammer shifters ... as well as our Pro line of shifters with a manual center console. Both in 3rd and 4th gens.

I bought the Cheetah, then changed my mind to the B&M ratchet - less hacking up of the interior - very happy with it. Nice solid shifts - I mean solid.

I can take pics this weekend if you are interested
