You either machine your stick to accept the c6 **** or graph (weld) on a donor C6 upper shift stick to yours.

I agree..I would not glue it on.

Measure the i.d. of the **** and see if it is close to correct to be tapped to M16x1.5

If its similar to the 5th gen shift **** mounting, Hawks makes a conversion stick for the stock Hurst shifter to mount a 5th gen ****. I just ordered that kit for my car.

Or there are sellers on ebay selling a conversion kit for the c6 **** as well for fbodies.

bought a c6 **** years ago from a seller on ebay for about 70 bucks. They had modded the **** to fit the stock shaft on the t56. I'd assume the thread was the same from lt1 to ls1 generations.
