The Blaine Fabrication Delrin shift knob is available for C4/C5 and 4thgen Fbody fitments, and others if thread size and shifter dimensions are supplied. I stock the following diameters in black Delrin: 1 1/8" : for small hands 1 1/4" : for average size hands - the knob in the pic above is this size 1 1/2" : for large hands My standard height is 4", with the knob sunk on the shifter stalk about the same as the OEM knob, so it will stick up about 2" higher than the OEM knob, bringing it closer to the level of the drivers hands on the steering wheel. Customs are available: other diameters, white instead of black Delrin, other thread sizes, taller (or shorter). These are made to order - if I can make it with stock material and tooling it is stock price, if I have to puchase material or tooling then it is custom price Introductory pricing: stock material and fitment : $55 plus shipping plus CA sales tax for shipments to CA address. custom material or fitment : $65 plus shipping plus CA sales tax for shipments to CA address.

Alan, I've decided to just cut the shifter handle and weld a M16 x 1.5 bolt to it with the head cut off.
If I ever decide to sell the shifter and someone doesn't like the way it looks, they can go buy another handle (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) |

If I ever decide to sell the shifter and someone doesn't like the way it looks, they can go buy another handle (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) That'll work, I do that for the Toyota shifter - it has no threads after ripping off the rubber isolated upper section. I drill a hole up the bottom of the M16 bolt, and grind the shifter shaft down so I get 1/2" or so of insertion and do a perimeter weld. I don't trust butt welds on small section stuff.
