@DonM,
Curious to hear the feedback with these solid bushings. I just received my Hurst short shifter and will do mostly the same install as you... well a little more. That said, I anticipate you to get some of the perks of the Hurst shifter while retaining the OE throws.

I've already been under the car and my stock bushings are COMPLETELY GONE!! - at leas the driver's side one. The only thing that's left is the outer metal ring. The plastic/nylon/whatever portion of the stock bushing has completely fallen out, and the shifter linkage has at least 3/16" of 'free space on all sides between the shifter pin and the walls where bushing material SHOULD BE, so you can imagine just how sloppy the shifter has become.

WITH ANY LUCK ... I am going to try and make a full-install video of the process, since the only one out there (which is referenced by ZL1 Addons) only shows what it looks like AFTER the bushings are installed, but not how it was done.

There are a few shorts that clearly show the difference in shift lever "slop" before & after and the PDF file sent by ZL1Addons seems straight-forward enough, but I'm a visual learner and I would like to SEE it done, before doing it myself
