Are you referring to the brackets that hold the cable housings before they enter the shift assembly?

My hope is to go as short as my dexterity will allow me. My favorite shift setup of all time was on my old Honda Del Sol, 1-2 was within the radius of the Blox shift knob I had. I also had a large bore clutch master cylinder that reduced my clutch travel to about 1-2 inches. (I would LOVE to do a similar thing on this car...Maybe a master cylinder off a v6 toyota? Or an adapter plate to mount up a generic Wilwood MC could be fabbed).

With such a short throw of both lever and clutch, the speed at which the syncros of the transmission could mesh was almost exactly the speed of a slightly spirited input on the shifter and clutch. So casual shifting was right at the mechanical limits of the transmission. It was blissful.

This was the setup I had: https://forums.mightycarmods.com/for...er-Shortening=

I'm not sure what you're asking about. The interference?

Here's the thread. The pictures were lost in the Photobucket debacle a few years back, but I may have the originals somewhere...
