Dave, how much additional effort are we talking about? I think I would still lean towards the shape/color you have in your avatar. What do you think?

 

Well. that depends upon the shifter....from hardest/shortest throw to softest/longest throw...

1) BP, Hurst. or B&M Ripper
2) MTI Racing six shooter shifter
3) B&M Precision
4) C6 OEM Z06 shifter (unthreaded shaft)
5) C6 OEM shifter (unthreaded shaft)
6) C5 OEM shifter

The shifters on #1 are fairly stiff, but very short-throw. The #2 may be a good compromise for those who feel #1s are too stiff. #s 4 and 5 cannot accept a threaded shift **** unless their shafts are threaded.

Regarding the shifter **** shape. If you prefer the pistol-grip method of shifting, the type in my avatar is ideal for those with small or medium builds. If you are 6'4" or taller, the spherical shape is probably a better choice, IMO.

Thanks,

Dave

 

Car.... looks..... great!
I still want to see the gold "U. S. Marshal" star on the quarter panel behind the front wheels!!!

 

The car looks terrific. I couldn't own black in a million years. I don't have the patience for the upkeep. But man am I glad you do. Great photography too.

Well pecemkr whether is was black before or BLACK now it looks EXCELLENT!!!!!!!

 

Thanks Bluwolf....thanks Starship!
I don't think I would get away with that US Marshall star on the side of the car....I may get stopped for trying to impersonate an officer ....but all kidding aside, I'm a non-sworn municipal government employee in charge of the local Police Review Commission....since I am not a cop.....some people may have a problem with any hint of misrepresentation.....so I'll just do without the "star" for now

 

Hey, Pece -
If you ever get pulled over for speeding, I hope it is by one of your buddies.

 

Thanks Rita....me too!
