No, I have not considered the Richmond. I think the external shifter linkage could present a whole new set of problems. In my application and you can see my trans/Hurst shifter on page three of my Photo Album in my Public Profile. It's mounted with a custom bracket to bring it forward. The Butler has the engine/trans pushed back as far as it can physically go. I guess I could create something that would do the trick, but internal shifter looks like a better engineered solution?
Thanks,
Arthur
