Thanks man. The shifter is actually the stock shifter cut short, they call it the SOGI mod, however, I bought the car with the shifter already that way so I didn't have to do the work lol and yea stock is ridiciously long. From the looks of it, it was cut and welded back together to keep the threading to put back on the stock shifter knob or any knob with the threading inside. Hope that helps.
