Best place to buy short shift kit?

Yes this is the best option in my opinion. I have tried Ben's, 987 and B&M. Ben's is the best by far.

I have a B+M for sale....if needed. In flawless condition.

I just switch to the 987 shifter and I’m pretty happy with it. Curious, how is Ben’s better? Perhaps I’ll have to consider upgrading my old shifter.

The 987 is a vast improvement over the 986 shifter, so i'm not saying it is bad or I didn't like it. Ben's shifter is basically a B&M or similar reworked with better bearings. At least that's the way mine is, it's a few years old. Ben's shifter has an even shorter throw than the 987 and feels like a bolt action rifle. So if you want a shorter throw and high quality bearings go with a Ben's. If you just want a shorter throw B&M or anything similar would work fine. If you are happy with the 987, then by all means keep using that one.
