I'm buying a new 600 Tremec and wanting the best for the money.
Let's get down to the nitty-gretty boyz.
The stock shifter isn't inherently bad, but the aftermarket kits shorten the throw and give you a more positive shift. I drove my car for about 1,000 miles with the stock TKO shifter before going to the Steeda Tri Ax (recommended to me by a local owner) and I've been very happy with it. I don't know about anything about the other aftermarket kits, but the Steeda and the Pro-shift seem to be popular with Cobra owners.

BTW - The shift from second to third is interesting until you get familiar with it.
