Great project! More high-res pics needed..
I am planning to use one of those shifters. What are your experiences with it? What does the throw work out to be? Any problems?

Dang way to tear it up!
It looks super sweet. Drop a cheap tranny in there and be gentle until winter when you can put a stout one in. Way to go man!
