No idea where you are in CT. but do have a couple places mentioned by others. "Allen_B" found a non-Chev dealer to do good work on his car: Sun Harbor GMC/Buick (not so unusual) in Old Saybrook;
and "BJ67" said he'd found a good alignment shop. Might ask them if they know of someone to install the MGW shifter or maybe they will. Name is Dayhill Automotive, in Windsor.
Might ask the question if you choose not to do it yourself.

Just saying hi from over the hill in Sherman, sorry can't help with the shifter.
Your car is being built, I guess it's a 2017 model, nice car!

Yeah, you will probably want the MGW. I've owned a couple of S2000s and a Cayman with the Porsche Short Shifter. Stock C7 shifter is pretty good, but not in that league. I've driven L82Brake's GS with the MGW, and it's now on my list. Installing side skirts this weekend, one thing at a time.

I just sold my 71 Vert, Steel Cities Gray, it's still listed in this months Hemmings. Got a good price, so bought the 18, wanted a more everyday driver.
Let me know if you attend any local car functions, maybe will find you
