I know that Shawn S produced some nice images about how lowering the top of the shifter shortens the actual shift.

...
we're been over this before...the outcome of that thread was it all depends on the driver...you can get an idiot shifter with a Momo knob that wouldn't make an inch of difference, while you can get an awesome shifter using the stock shifter who will beat most others

not like headers or an intake where all u do is mash the gas and let the mods do the work

if yer gonna tell me a Momo knob is a performance mod like springs, sways, even brake lines, yer smokin some good shit

I agree -- the knob mod is not equivalent to a supercharger. It's worth lies somewhere in the spectrum between stickers --> tires.

My sarcasm is not making it through the internet.

Low knob/short shifter = very low end performance mod.

That's why you need a sock for your knob!.

OK, it's sort of stupid looking, but it serves a purpose
