Default Pic Request (short shifters)

Currently rocking the stock shifter , but my first plans for any upgrade is the shifter. I have looked around but I haven't seen any pictures of the difference of shifter height when you install a UUC or Katech or other short shifter vs stock height. If it isn't too much trouble, I'd like to see some pictures of short shifters installed (please include what shifter you have installed and any other changes you've made ie shift ***** or boots)

Gracias

I don't recall where the instructions are, but I did the shifter swap w/o dropping the trans/exhaust. Was it a lil harder, sure, but it wasn't impossible.

Stock shifter, modified by azn2dmax, I run the white **** full time:

Azn2dmax modified shifter, polished with sandpaper, eBay ****, and I used a GM dipstick seal from autozone as the boot trim below the exposed stalk.

No pic... but UUC...

******* amazing. From a sloppy old ****-shifter to the UUC, I want to give my shifter head every time I drive it.

Seriously.

Of course my shifter. (Shameless plug) LOL I modify them but don't have any to modify and "sell". I do custom shifters with different stalks and threads for *****.

I made this shifter with an OEM lower and Hurst upper.

And here are the instructions without having to drop exhaust and tranny. I've made/modified mine so many times I can change it out in 30 min.

Here are some pics that I took from when I installed PISNUOFF's short throw shifter. I went from a 5" throw to a 3" throw. Install took about 1.5 hours by myself.

what the hell is that, a golden egg?

here's my b&m with GTO **** (and boot). These pics are a few years old. Since then I've hacked off another 1/4-1/2" off the stalk.

This is my (PISNUOFF) standard height that I ship shifters. It's about 1/2" lower than stock. I can go as low as 1" lower than stock with the standard attachment method and I can thread all the way down the top shaft which lowers the **** even more.
