pix of shifter and horn upgrade

installed a bad boy horn. 1 bolt, 2 wires. eazy peazy.
installed Taiwan shifter, took 10 minutes top. Shifter has to be shortened about 3" by machinist(he was impressed by quality).
Shifter says 40% shorter throw but cutting it down makes it about 60% and it is sweet. 2nd gear no longer hits my leg.
to get reverse the knob is lifted up(not down) and over.

Blast away!!!

Bob---man, you are doing what you are supposed to do with these cars---improve 'em!

I looked at that Taiwan shifter as it was highly recommended by an expert but it was too long and they wouldn't shorten it for me. I didn't have someone who could properly shorten it so I went with the CSp which will be fine because other experts recommended that one.

I like your additional gauges too--they look like the one's I'm getting for my car. Your's look good and don't have that "J. C. Whitney" look. What gauges are they---Mine will be CHT and Oil temp.

Jack, they look like VDO Cockpit style to me.

they are VDO. oil pressure and oil temperature, invaluable info.

shifter color. should i:
leave it beige color
paint black
paint body color
other ideas

Bob,
That shifter looks awesome!!! Leave it just the way it is in the first pic. I think it looks really slick naked.

I really want to dump my Empi trigger. I will get around to it one of these days when I find the perfect replacement. How much was that set up if you don't mind me asking?

Bob,
The paint comes off quite easily.
I sanded mine down to the bare metal, then polished it.
Looked a lot better for my car.
I put a black knob on as well.

it was 247 plus tax/shipping and 50 for the machinist.ouch.
