Which shifter?
After only driving my viper for a few days the stock shifter is driving me nuts, what shifters are most popular in these cars?

MGW LTD. George is a great guy, terrific craftsman, and pretty much the industry standard. MGWLTD.com

If the stock shifter is too tall, a short throw adaptor helps. It bolts in in place of the rubber isolater part of the shifter. I'm giving some away in the sponsors' forum this month.

Click the donation button at the bottom of the page...

I had the B&M Ripper installed with the MGW knob however mine still sits up high, looks higher than SB's. If I can get my camera back I will post a pic. (damn "professional photographer" dropped it at a wedding and broke it!)

I agree. I run an MGW First Strike knob with the stock shifter and it is perfect.

I just removed this shifter from my car! Hated the darn thing. [img]/images/graemlins/down[/img] Looking for something else while living with the stock shifter. (at least I don't miss shifts with the stock one)

Re: Which shifter?
The B&M I have is a gated shifter and I no longer miss gears. However even with the MGW knob it sits up almost as high as the stock shifter. I'd like to lower it a bit. Looking to win the adapter give away!

Any other suggestions?
