Glen,

In an original style chassis, the tailhousings you've listed will place the shifter ≈2" further back from the correct location. I know that doesn't sound like much but it's actually quite noticeable (at least to me). But whether the 2" difference is good or bad will obviously depend on the chassis used as well as personal taste.

I hope this helps.
