Ed,
Another option, strtictly an option no personnel feelings involved but here is a shifter that mounts below the tunnel directly to the C-6 allowing a 6" handle. This will at least drop the shifter to around you elbow or lower instead of being 'shoulder' height!
Just thought you might like to look at it before we install the B&M large shifter?.

PS, I think the one in the picture is a 10" or 18" handle. It's Lokars C-6 shifter
