K Thanks to beach accord for IMing me and giving me more info on this... I went ahead today and shortened my shifter too. God I think i'm addicted to high speed cutting with a Dremel now... who would've guessed spinning at 35,000 RPM can do so much for you? =P OK the only problem I ran into was unable to find the Dies measured with metric system. So now the thread on my shifter is kind of messed up, but I'm going to look around and fix it later.

Thanks again dude!
