I took my original Hurst shift handle and the supplied shift handle for the TKX to a local machine shop and had them modify them to match. Aside from sitting about one-inch higher than it did with the M-20, the OE shift handle is now "bolted" to the TKX and looks factory stock.
that's great! I've ordered some tapered washers and I'll attempt to shim it over toward the passenger side a little to get this to position more vertically. Wit hthe shifter boot on it won't be visible.
