I assume this is what he is looking for. Is so, probably dealer only, but would NOT be difficult to make one

Suggest you get a after market one that doesn't need the "Demon Key"! Several types available from forum vendors...

It is the metal wedge that is on the shifter ball under the cat. Can be a real bear to get get when replacing the stock shifter ball with an aftermarket.

You guys are too funny! Thxs!

Yep, devil/demon key, same thing. It fastens the **** in place on the C5 stock shifters. Mine has been in and out enough times with shifter mods that it no longer holds the **** properly. It wiggles a bit.

My B&M Ripper is a personal favorite and I am sticking with it. Guess I will shop the vendors, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

Just for reference. The part number is 10150014.

I think it is about $10, but you can find some discounted to about $7 or $8.

I checked on them this last week since I can't find one for a project of mine.
