[QUOTE="ArizonaSnake, post: 183845, member: 2774"] I'm going to get over my head here in this but ..... The short throw shifters ..... you will notice... are taller at the tower. Thus why the PRO 5.0 says things like Tower Shifter. The added height in the tower moves the effective pivot point.... By moving the pivot point up..... the bottom end of the shifter "rod" below the pivot point becomes longer... and thus.. moves further... in relation to the distance traveled by the "rod" above the pivot point. Shortening the handle itself only improves an already better situation. But the moving the pivot point (plus the way the shifter is built things are more positive and clean) is the major improvement in distance. The shorter handle is the added icing. If you use your stock handle (which would take some adaptation if you wanted to dump the rubber isolater) you are still much better off than the stock shifter. Confused? :dw: [/QUOTE]
