15 years ago, before the daze of forums/etc...I had a real 8 ball I drilled and inserted a thread saver of steel, glued into the ball....
screws on to the shifter just fine....but there is NO interlock so it's a stick shift shifter....
however there is NO reason this could not be easily modified and drilled through the ball for the button and base.....

I got the chrome ball and new button from either ZIP or Mid America if my memory serves me correctly.
The leather shift boot from Redline (forum vendor, at least was if they are not now) was 2 inch taller than stock. I would go even 4 inches taller than stock if I was to it again for a 100% coverage in all position look.
