hey when you've got a crooked dick you learn to live with it.
* a question, i've heard that short shifters will put extra stress on the transmission since you are generally putting it in gear faster. is there any truth to this?
just as long as its a double bend system you should be okay. i think skunk 2 is a double. replace your shifter bushing with energy suspension crap when you change out the shifter too
it puts excess pressure on shift synchros, bearings, and fork but, not as much as any aftermarket part you put on your car. except when not installed properly or cheap machined work shifter. (ie ebay crap)
good luck
