    Agree Two kids in college + one kid starting college next year = justification for side business selling shifters.

    If you both "own" the design he should be willing to give you the drawings. Maybe you could find a new partner to make the jigs

    Is Bob's short shifter superior to the Seattle one? Hopefully they are in the same league. Just curious because I ordered the Seattle one from Ninja Performance last week

    This is still one of the best mods I had ever done to either of my cars.

    Not a huge fan of aftermarket shifters but the fact that yours' uses stock components is a huge plus for me!

    I tried to get them reproduced (with Bob's consent), but the place I use didn't even want to jig it up to make 100 of them. Sucksorz

    If you can't get Bob's (no experience with his), the Seattle is great. I have one, and someone earlier said one of the best mods I have done. (though not Bob's)

    Plus Pauly could use the buisness about now as well.

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!
