[QUOTE="Cman01, post: 16152854, member: 138028"] Yes, but remember the Blowfish mount is attached to the trans so it will move with the trans which means now the shifter will also move with it (assuming that you are getting the lockout/grind because the back of your shifter is attached to the body of the car (which doesn't torque over like the trans) but your fork arms are attached to the trans and will move with it). Look, I get it that the MGW is leagues ahead of the stock shifter and most likely down the road I probably will pick one up but at this time I really don't think adding the MGW instead of that bracket will solve my issues with shifting my Shelby under race conditions. As stated earlier, I'm kinda done throwing parts at my car since last year I did my weight reduction mods (lightweight battery, BMR K) and my 3:73 gear install (remember that was a whole fiasco since the 3:90 didn't work out) and currently I'm sitting on over US$1500 worth of HP adding mods (ARS tensioner, 10% ATI, PMAS, BPS ported elbow and FRPP monoblade) that I want to install but there's no point if this thing doesn't shift worth a crap when I need it. So I'm trying out the bracket first, besides since I did those little upgrades with the stock shifter I don't mind it at all under all the other conditons other than at the strip. Tony [/QUOTE]
