Theres short shifters and shortened shifters if that makes sense. You can have one or the other or even both as they are different. A short shifter reduces throw on a gearlever by lengthing the pivot point and a spacer to compensate. (The angle of changing gears is reduced at the same height - ie less throw) A shortened shifter reduces throw by shortening the gearstick. (The angle of changing gears is the same but on a reduced height - ie less throw) Whats the difference? The gearstick height from the steering wheel, really for performance you want that gearstick close to the wheel and not buried in the gearstick boot somewhere on the floor half a meter away. The short shifter was a proper race thing but needs fabrication and can be cost a bit if not off shelf, the shortened shifter is a cheap and nasty way of trying to get the same result I guess but people still do it and call it a short shifter anyway hence the confusion of it all.

You could CAD this and sell it. I'd be interested.
