the setup I have is the B&M short shifter which is superb the way, brass shifter bushings, metal retainers for the shifter housing, and a stainless clutch line and let me tell you...DAM! Its like im driving a brand new car every day. The feeling is very much like cocking and loading a flawless clean super m16-A2 service rifle.

About fitting issues, the underhood fitment is no prob. The shifter base is another story. You either have to file down the bushing a little, or file open the holes in the base of the shifter.
If you were going for ease of install, then I say go for the metal one since they need no additional fitment mods.

I have both the brass under hood bushings and I have the B&M precision base bushings. IT was part of the B&M adjustable shifter kit..
Engagement is VERY positive, quite knotchy and mechanical like. If you like this feel this set up is amazing! For myself, I give it

If I remember right, changing the underhood bushings will make the greatest difference. Doing the shifter base bushings or shortening the shifter will only give marginally noticeable differences/
