Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

Can you tell what was being test fitted? It'll be drastically shorter when I do some trim work, but I was just test fitting to see if everything fit smoothly.
lol keyphrase was on the "It'll be drastically shorter when I do some trim work" part, lol. Nick's right, it's an automatic to manual shiftknob adapter. It sits ontop of the automatic shaft and stick, and you push the whole knob & adapter down which then allows you to shift. Only bad part is the fact that it adds that good 6 inches or so to the height. I'm going to take a dremel to the automatic shaft and cut atleast two inches off from it, probably more, so it's shorter. I'm going to cut it down so it's as short as possible without losing functionality.
it just barely clears the screen, but my biggest concern is that I rest my arm on the console and then grip the shifter as I drive... just comfortable for me. If the shifter is still higher than before after I take off as much of the stock shifter shaft as I can, it might be uncomfortable, lol.
well is it the shaft style? long white platic strip with beads all up it? you can cut thouse down to fit a shift nob... ive never made one where to whole handle shifts it but i did convert one from the front button to a top button pretty easy by just knocking out a couple inches on the shifter itself and the plastic shift rod...just make sure you have it tight otherwise you will be pissed when you cant shift and all it is, is you cant get the knob all the way down

yeah that's exactly what it is, and i know I've already experienced that lol. I didn't have the clip on the auto shifter back before Autorama and we all drove to a guy's house to carpool to Cobo and when I got there, my shifter knob moved up and I didn't realize it and I couldn't put it in park. Then after like a few minutes of freaking out like wtf why won't it park, I realized hey push down on the whole knob then press the button and tada I can shift into park lol.
