Well, those of you that have been following my ramblings in the transaxle threads have noticed that I found out that Fidanza makes more than flywheels for our beloved Contours....they make shifters as well. After a month of "e-mail tag" with Customer Service at Fidanza, they gave me the address of a gentleman who sells their products exclusively on Ebay. I have contacted him, and he and I figured we would see what people's interest was on this GB as there was already a GB for B&M shifters. Here's a pic...I also asked about the weld on the shift ball and he claimed the weld is pretty thick, and that it isn't the "cheap" aluminum they use on other shifters...He has told me the price is 80$ shipped to anyone in the lower 48.

BTW, I e-mailed him to see what applications he has in stock...right now he has 98-00 applications...not sure about Fidanza having pre-98 stuff- I guess we'll find out

WTH .. I never heard of Fidanza making shifters for the mtx75
Anybody have them ? Comment ? I want a steeda for the shorter throw, but don't want to deal with the plate and [censored] installing so I was gonna go B&M.
What's the pros/cons of this ?

If it was a knock-off, then Fidanza's going to look pretty silly.....They placed me in contact with this supplier after I asked about a group buy from their Customer Service dept. It would appear that he sells their products directly from Fidanza on Ebay.....they didn't give me any other contact info for a GB. I would say e-mail Fidanza directly with any questions. I'm as curious as you are about the quality, but I feel a little more confident with a reputable name. This is just an interest check.....
