Short throw shifter
Has anyone switched their shifter out to a shorter throw model? I did this on my 07 mustang and it was a great upgrade, I am trying to get an idea from anyone that has done this to see if it is worth my time on a 2005 corvette.

MGW shifter is the one to go with for the vette. You probably heard of MGW on the Mustang.

On a 2005 it's definitely worth it. I installed the B&M unit on my 05 and really enjoyed the shorter throw. The 09 comes with a shorter throw linkage and for me there is no need to improve on that.
