    Guess'n I put this in the right spot. Really contemplating on getting a COBB Short Throw Shifter with the bushings. Is this something that is worth it or is there a better brand or set up. I was reading that the Kartboy bushings are better... Any feed back would be great. THANKS!

    I prefer Kartboy over anything else for shifting

    I agree with Matt!

    Kartboy for the win for sure. I would absolutely recommend this upgrade. It will take some minor adjusting with shifting, but you will definitely love it. I haven't really driven mine much lately but I have been contemplating swapping my shifter out as well.

    There is also a bushing in the rear of the shift linkage I would also recommend replacing.

    I have a Cobb short throw shifter and the Holy shift kit (kartboy front and rear stay bushings, TiC pivot and shift linkage bushings). Every time anyone from Allpro gets in my car they always say I have the best shifter setup out of all the cars they see.

    If you go to the meet next Tuesday or are going to Petit Le Mans on Saturday, I'll let you check out the setup.

    I have to work Sunday, so no C&O for me. Unless something comes up I'll be at the meet on Tuesday.
