When my ghetto-*** welded "short shifter" broke, I threw some vice-grips on what was left of the connection on the joint. That made for one short throw.

The TWM shifters are VERRRYY short. They also have a very short throw.

why dont you just cut yours down and retap it or re die it .... thats cheap it wont be a short throw but it will be little.. a hacksaw and a die set should do it but i think our rods get wider the farther down it gets....

i like my b&m, it cut the throw down by 50%, the distance from 1-2, is now the distance from 1-N . And it lowers the height pretty low too

B&M

the jg edelbrock one isnt terribly short, but i have one and like it---it curves towards the driver just a little and makes it have a comfortable feel

You can get an APC at almost any parts store. They run about $50, and the throw between 1st n 2nd is about 2-3 inches. It makes grinding very easy.
