anything steel should be good. stay away from aluminum (ebay) ones, they break.

Skunk2.

I've owned a B&M and it rattled. Other than that it was awesome.

edelbrock is the shit. i got one for my dc teg and its like butter. it bends slightly towards the driver sorta like how they are in muscle cars. i experimented with an ebay one and it felt so cheap.

it really dosnt matter - but theres a difference between DUAL bend and SINGLE bend short shifters. i suggested a dual bend because it brings the shift knob closer to you. now brand wise - it also really dosnt matter as long as its not aluminum, they will break eventually. just make sure its steel. id check ebay first for used skunk2, edelbrock short throws. if you cant find any, just get blox (same stuff as skunk2 but cheaper) or a tenzo.
