Good morning redwing.
I've had Lokar trans mount floor shifters in my '32 Ford roadster street rod with both the previous TH 350 trans and the present 200 4R. Both of those shifters are, in my opinion, very high quality that one rarely sees anymore in this era of crap from China. I opted for short shift handles, unlike the longer handles that Joe used. That may be the reason that I had absolutely no problems with noise or vibration of the lever.
As others point out Lokar parts are expensive but quality usually is.
A buddy of mine was an automotive professional and he was once at a trade show where Lokar had a booth. Some Chinese were there photographing the Lokar stuff so they could make bootleg copies and the Lokar crew had to call security to have the Chinese ejected. It's said that "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery".
