Default Short Shifter

I'm looking into getting a short shifter for my 2K Tiburon. From what i've read B&M makes a good shifter but its a bit high like stock. Is there any other company that makes a good short shifter like B&M but shorter that i don't have to modify?

I know Shark Racing has one but i have to cut the plate and i really don't want to do that. They were coming out with a new one i think. Anyone know if thats out?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

If you want an SR short shifter let me know, I have one sitting here along with a modified baseplate so you don't have to cut yours up And I'll let you have both for $75 shipped. Heres a pic of it.

I've got the B&M and love it. Yeah, could be a bit shorter, but does it really matter?

If so, get the B&M and cut it down. Re-Thread.

This SR is a shorter throw.
But it's "chunkier", even in the 2001's which have double syncros.
Also the alignment is more to the right.
IE: 1st looks like you're in 3rd.

The B&M is smoother and not cutting. Took like 10 minutes to install after reading the instuctions. But if he's selling the baseplate too. That'll save lotsa time and trouble if it's already cut right.
