Gear lever

I'm planning to use a Tiger gearlever on my car's toploader. Could anyone tell me how long the original street 289 leafspring car gear lever should be? The Tiger one is straight, with 'square' reverse lockout lever, and measures 8.25" from the base of the bolt mounting to the tip of the thread at the top. The actual shaft is 5.25" from where it is welded to the base mounting to the top of the lockout slider. How does this compare?
Also, there doesn't seem to be room for the rubber bush vibration insulators around the two mounting bolts for the shifter to the 'U' piece on the mechanism, which 4spd Mustangs had - did the Tiger/Cobra not have these?
Thanks guys
Roger
