I have the B&M shifter and like it. It still does not feel as good as a TR3650 + Steeda Tri-Ax, though. Close, but not as good.

I see that the most popular one seems to be the B&M's Precision Sport Shifter PN 45163...
but I am NOT paying 200.00 bucks thats just too much! any others out there?

It's quite a bit shorter, especially if you go with an aftermarket knob.

That's what I paid from Stillen. I don't know who else sells it.

If the Stillen price has gone up, I think it was a short deal, then check out Intense Power.

Yeah, I bought it from Stillen when they had a pricing special going on. I think it's worth the $179. Just bear in mind that you'll need file away a little bit of metal on the shifter-mount in order to allow the short-throw to engage reverse.

It's a requirement. If you don't file, you won't engage reverse. I'd imagine others would be the same?
