Randy, my suggestion to you is to consider modifying that shifter package or you will likely run into the same problem I had. With a straight shifter stick, you run into the problem of jamming your knuckles into the dash when firing into third gear. There just isn't enough clearance between the knob and the dash. I did a fair amount of research on my options and ended up purchasing a different stick from Hurst. It looks awesome! The stick is black annodized aluminum and it curves back about 1.75" and a little towards the driver. It's about an inch shorter. The feel is perfect. I added the black hurst shift knob with the appropriate H pattern in white. What an improvement. You'll have to check mine out.
