nice, i have one myself, instal is kinda self explanitory nothing to it..just take it apart, clean the tranny surface where the shifter and tranny meetreally good with a razor blade, make sure you take the little platic cup thingy off the ball of the stock shifter and put it on the new one, goop some RTV on the bottom on the shifter or on the tranny surface, make sure you get some around where the bolts go threw, thred the bolts and crank it down, adjust the bumpstops if you want for peice of mind

Not to be an *** or anything, but did it come with instructions? If not did you look on Steeda's website yet? Nearly 98% of the stuff I've put on my car came with good instructions.

If you mean shift length stop, then DON'T use them with the 3650 transmission. They are already built in and can possibly F the transmission up if you use the ones in the shifter.

very easy install. just use a small amount of rtv to go around the parameter. after install make sure you adjust the stops. the to bolts one if front and other in back. you want to be able to put it all the way in gear but not to far the stop should be set a litle bit past full engagement so that it can go all the way in but not over. and for the handle use the middle and bottom holes for a shorter throw

Something about the transmission having problems kicking the shifter out of gear..? It was in my MGW instructions atleast.
