Default question about short shifter

I tried the search. but kept coming up with nothing. In the market for a short shifter and either going for skunk2 or B&M. My question is which one sits further back? the dual bend or single bend? some say dual bend. but when I see a few pics of the single it looks it sits pretty far back.

Some pics or words from folks who have them would be great, thanks!

I have a single bend, and a buddy of mine has a dual bend and his sits way further back than mine. Both cars are 91 civics.

I say its just a shifter. Skunk2 and b&m are both big name brands. Id go with the one thats least expensive. Not gonna lie.... I bought mine off ebay.

With the single bend, the length from the ball to the top is the same as the stock one. Its just longer on the botom so the shifting distance is shorter. With the shift boot on it looks stock but less movement when shifting. Ill try to get pics tomorrow in the daylight
