So the engine (v8) and transmission are not stock, nor am i sure what they are out of, etc. But the location of the manual shifter coming thru the floor is extremely (almost dangerously) close to the pedals. The top of the shifter is literally under my leg in first gear! You should be able to see in the interior picture that there is a slight bend in the shaft. What i was wondering is if i took a 3" or 4" piece of aluminum, steel, square bar, etc and mounted it directly to the transmission in the current place of the shifter and turn the shifter shaft 90 degrees so the bend is going towards the passenger and mount it to the bar, if this would work. I know it's kind of a "band-aid" of a fix, but is there anything else i could do??
My apologies also for any incorrect terminology! Thanks guys!
