I've got SLP Short stick/short shifter, it's just that **** is a good 6inches tall. Still shifts way faster than the stock shifter. When I take the tranny out to get rebuilt this summer I'm gonna cut the stick down a little bit.

Just save up for a 427 and drop in the bastard ... then do exhaust stuff ... of course, you'll have to suffer with a stock-to-near-stock ride for a few years. That's a lot of saving!

Glad to see you got your bird man ... looks nice.
