same here... well almost. hurst made a shifter for my truck for $240 & i almost bought it (but cash is tight right now). i've pulled my shifter apart & it's a relatively easy job (granted i have a little more space than a camaro). i want it so i don't have to worry as much about missing shifts (3rd can be a real pain sometimes, but it got better after i pulled it out & reinstalled it) that & with a shorter throw, it'll be much easier to drive with somebody in the middle
