I used the prothane mounts in conjunction with the Saleen short throw adapter, and they worked great......

Default Shifter Mod

I had the Saleen short throw shifter block along with the Steeda urethane shifter bushing set. The combo works really well together. I think the shifter block kit runs about $100 and the bushing kit $15-$20. I had these installed before I bought my MGW shifter. As a matter of fact, I just sold them.
I know you can buy these from Saleen & Steeda, but search around, I think you might get them a little cheaper. It's not a bad install either.

These ones look similar to the Steeda ones I had;

Helped quite a bit for the price.
