<VV> shifter base studs

[Sethracer at aol.com]

All of the "quick-shift" kits on the market required this, in order to  
install the spacer between the casting and the floor. I would carefully support 
 the area around the head of the stud before tapping (ok, whomping) on the 
tip of  the stud. The right size 3/8" socket should do fine. You might try 
installing a  nice nut on the threaded end before hitting it, in order to 
preserve the stud.  Someone might need the old stud someday, say, when they 
grow tired of trying to  adjust the quicker shifter and realize that maybe 
didn't really need it after  all. <grin> - PS - Say goodbye to those shims where 
the shifter bolts  up against the floor (save those too). And make sure the 
rest of the  "shift-train" is optimized.

Hi - Has  anyone tried pressing out the four studs found on a LM on a 
shfter base  housing? This is the metal base that bolts to the floor. I need 
longer ones,  and it looks like they would come out fairly  e-z. 

Thanks
