short throw m-21
does anyone know whether shifter linkage on the m-21 (i have a 68) was attched onthe long (bottom) or short (top) arms. i was thinking of switching to the shorter throw, anyone ever use this and have any comments on how it shifts? thanks, john

I changed mine on my 68 M-20 from longer throw to short throw. It is pretty simple: You just change the holes, but due to geometry you also have to adjust the position of the things that go into the holes. Very simple. The first impression is awesome; it feels like going from a truck to a sports car. But (there is always a but) my trans is getting hard to shift and geometry also tells you that with a shorter lever more force is required to move it. I say, "try it, you'll (probably) like it."
