So how did you do??? I swear the car is a 1/2 second quicker with this thing :thumbs:
I must have installed it correctly. Do you think I should set the idle a bit higher???

Okay sorry I cave.

What is in the box is my shift ****.

For reason not in my control to divulge, Bob has no shift **** on his car just a sharp metal stick.

Since I got an aftermarket, I lent him my stocker till he gets his back.

How it makes him faster is now he can shift the car quicker as he has a soft padded shift **** instead of a cold metal sharp object.

Happy Drag Racing Bob
