Thanks Ron
No boot for me yet. Going to do a custom cnc'd aluminum hold down plate for mine when I get around to it. It's going to require a fabricated sub frame structure for it to attach to...very time consuming and I'm lazy right now.

I'm still going to use it, i'm just not happy with how it will look. I want it to look factory or purpose built and not cobbled together. I'd like to say it is their fault but they made it just like I told them to. I just didn't allow enough room in my measurements.
I may consider making a few and selling them but I don't know because it will be expensive. Kinda hard to sell a shifter boot and mount for $350-400 That it will probably cost. Hell, the Polish made Italian leather boot was $100 by itself.

If mine would look like Quik's or the picture you posted of Retsell's I would be happy. I got a boot off Ebay but it was a piece of . I guess I can't expect too much for $15. The boot is all I need to finish my truck up on the inside. Still have to work out the cruise control though.

find an M6 Fbody and copy all the tables over, then use the Fbody's speedo calibration to configure your speedo. then paste everything onto your tune and thats it
