I wound up buying another 986 shifter to mod and the ebay short shifter. I have to say it was not a great fit. The bushings were snug enough but I had to remove internal washer from them to have room to put the clips on. I had to turn the shift shaft 180* as it was leaning the wrong direction. I had to file off some of the bottom of the shifter because it was rubbing on the cradle. I believe the stock shifter sits further to the front for clearance. It still has a bit of slop but is much tighter than stock. It takes more effort to shift for sure but I like the short throw. I may end up with a 987 shifter but will run this a while to see if it grows on me.
