If you make the shift gate closer to the top of the box the distance between gear positions should be closer....you'll need to do a lot of trial fitting. Maybe; Make a template of the gate and move it up and down until you find a sweet spot.
Fit the template on thread-bar studs and adjust it up and down to find the spot.
Just a thought.
