I was also thinking about picking one up, my friend has one and the shifting is soooo much nicer than the stock POS.
I also think he re-used his OEM boot to reduce heat from getting into the cabin and MAKE sure you get the OEM sealent from any GM dealer, it's like $10, put a nice amout on the base of the shifter and then tighten the screws. My friend did not do this and to his horror saw a leaky tranny. Most of the flulid leaked from that non-sealed error of his. Nothing happened because he caught it in time.
Have fun and maybe this summer I will buy one
