Yes, but I'd hate to have to try to hit reverse in that car.


Also, a longer lever doesn't need weight. It's only going to wear the shift forks.

I'm assuming this is a typo. When you extend the knob you increase throws, pointless unless you also change the pivot point (which you can't do with just a long knob).

Sorry, I was thinking ratio, not pivot point. Also the Fastline piece is really an extender / short shifter in one package. Due to the configuration of our shifter assembly vs. the one I described earlier there really isn't any direct comparison, and my points aren't really that valid. Gonna delete my previous post. I do however still think it looks like a mag light. :P
