Default 2010 Shifter question

I have a new Roush with the Roush short throw shifter. I don't have the Roush shifter arm or shifter handle. I actually like the bullitt style shifter handle on the premier interior package on the 10/11 GT's. My question is does that handle require a different shifter boot as the hole size looks different and where could I purchase this other than at the dealer..

The boot is different for the aluminum shifter ball. The opening is smaller. The shifter shaft is narrower

I have a Stage 1 but it has the blower, the short throw shifter, suspension, exhaust, 20 inch wheels. It is really a 427r but I didn't like the graphics on that car so I ordered it the way I wanted it and had the dealer install the blower.

Got any pics?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see where you posted already. Gorgeous car. I prefer it the way you did it, w/o the stripe.

Cool. Its like an undercover 427R. So your using the short throw without the extended arm? How is that for force required to shift? That must be a pretty short throw between gears. I have the extended billet arm on mine.

Hey Xcelsius, It is a really short throw...I like the look of the longer arm with the white ball but I like the feel of mine better. Plus it goes with the sleeper theme. ha ha ha
