Re: Cheap Mods (i.e. short shifter) 200 1983

Well: cheap mods include airbox and shortshifter. I think that's it.

I'm planning a shortshifter when I find a spare shifter to work on. I wouldn't actually shorten the stick, I would lengthen the part under the ball so that less travel is required at the shifter. Then you don't have to mess with reverse (except for adjusting the detent plate) or anything. You may have to bend the linkage slightly so it still clears the gearbox.
