well yeah i am aware of that one - lol, but is there a kit that changes the pivot point of the lever and therefore reducing the 'throw' of the lever?

cheers mjb, good info there.

and yup lurch, the 406 shift's like a fecking victorian signal box. A short shift would be a godsend.

jeesus its a big culture shock going from hard-core jap & german hardware to a rubber shopping trolley from the land of weewee, but I need the mpg. For now.....
