My Ratter Shifter
I wanted to get my B&M Pro Gate shifter off the tunnel. I wanted to be able to dial in the angle and maybe offset it to the passenger side for more room for me.
So enter a spent set of 602 inch Al connecting rods from a BBC alcohol drag boat and a couple of after hours CNC machined parts (plate, pair of pillow blocks, and a rod, all 6061 Al) and presto, a Ratter Shifter!
I think it will finish off pretty cool. What do you think?

Farrrrr-out man! That would make a great theme, using AL rods and race car parts in place of billet etc. To bad you've already go your column drop.
