Because of the spacer, it has also caused the travel distance from first to 2nd to be greater. That it actually hits the ring when it is shifted to second. im afraid to add a higher spacer because it will probably increase the travel even further where i wont be able to get it into gear.

I used a '66 Galaxie Top Loader (long tailshaft) with a 289 style shifter in my ERA 427. While not optimal, it seems to fit fine. After I get it sorted, I'll change to a 427 style shifter. Check my gallery, the shifter location is much like yours.
