Custom make a shifter lever (the part w/ the ball at the trans. end) that will fulcrum higher in the stick and shim the shifter body away from the tailhousing. Yeah!

I looking for the shifter with the shortest throw. The shifter. The stick does not matter.

If you want the shortest throw possible, get the Power Tower/LSS combo

The Power Tower has the highest pivot point of all the shifters on the market, so even though others may have a lower stick position, the actual throw of the Power Tower is still shorter

Combine that with an angled LSS and it gives you the perfect shifting position, unlike other shifters that place the **** so low in the console that it's just plain retarded


The only drawback is that it requires a bit more muscle to shift than other shifters, but only a girly man would complain about that
