New MGW 6 Speed shifter for the Shelby
Has anyone placed an order or installed one yet? I loved my MGW in my '06 and plan to put this in my '11 but would like to hear a little feed back vs. the stock Shelby. The stocker feels like a truck shift after my '06.
I'm also toying with the Rally Ball MGW offers. The Black/Red ball would match my car oh so nicely. Does anyone have an MGR ball? Thoughts? feel?
Thanks in advance!

I sent MGW an email as they don't accept PMs on here... Still waiting on a response from them. I'm hoping the ball sits lower than the stock position. Even with a shorter throw I still feel the vertical height could benefit from a 3/4" or so drop.

hey guys,
the reason our shifter is not height adjustable is that the boots on the 2010-2011 gt500s canot reverse like the 2007-2009 cars and thus the offset height bracket sits too far to line up in the hole.
our **** is set lower than stock but not by 3.4 inch more like 1/2 or so but it feels perfect. the adjustable throw makes it easy to get a very happy medium between tranny smoothness, shift effort and throw length

I had one in my 2006 GT and loved it.
