Message:
Well i gone and done it... i installed a B&M ratchet style shifter. Its pretty cool, looks a lot better sitting between my corbeau seats than that stick on the column. Only difficulty i incountered was making a new bracket it for the cable on the tranny. will try to get pics up soon.

Did you get a new column cover or is the factory shifter "end" still visible?

Looking forward to the pics :-)

i just installed the B&M... havent gotten around to taking apart the old shifter. I have to do some fine tuning on it because i cant get down to first gear. I dont plan on having anything else for a center console other than that.... maybe another nitrous bottle ;-)

damn those gay little hoses!!!!!!

that sounds like the right brand. I bought the 14" fan but you should be the 16" because i dont have a condensor in front of the radiator and i have an oil cooler.

Hmmm, neva noticed this topic. Neato mod , Greg.

I second the cleaning of the carpet. Looks like you pulled it out of a lake. Sheesh. lol

You may just have to put new carpet in there. I don't think that even the "industrial strength" steam cleaners will work on that thing.
