short throw shifter in my A-body
I used a short shifter for about 3 weeks, ( 2 events) and a half dozen missed shifts,, then changed back.
The 833 is a bear to shift, compared to most other trannys.. I found the extra length of the shifter gives me more leverage, and greatly reduces the # of missed shifts..
I'm sure a short shifter would be fine for the street,, but for serious shifting, and good et's.. the tall shifter suits ME better..
I also found the short shifter uncomfortable (wrist takes a beating) especially for a serious 2 -3 shift ...... jmo
hope it helps
