Any how to pages out there? How hard was it with ramps in a drive with hand tools? Thanks for any and all insight.
This is just what I needed. Can you let me know how your install goes?

Wreckless,
Did you ever receive your SVS shifter? I ordered mine on July 24 and am still waiting. Ron at SVS said today that they should have some more later this week. By the time I get mine it will have been over one month since I placed my order.
Also, I heard from a reliable tuner recently that the SVS and the B&M ripper shifter are the same thing under different names. One is blue anodized and the other isn't. First time I'd heard that one.
Ron,
So you are saying that SVS makes these shifters completely from SCRATCH?
Please clarify... thanks.

As I said, it was the first time I heard that the two shifters were the same except for one being anodized. I will mention your comments to him and see if he would like to take the time to come on here and state where he gets his info from.
I am glad to hear directly from you that they are not the same. I was a bit disappointed at first when I thought I'd spent more for the same thing under a different name.
I must have spent several hours researching the VCA forums and other places over the course of a week when deciding on what shifter to get between the SVS, B&M, Hurst or an MGW knob with the stock internals ands a shorter shaft. The SVS was the most expensive option but you can see from my order what I decided on.
I didn't base it on "you get what you pay for" or anything. Rather, the SVS had the most positive owner comments that I could find and everyone who has one likes it. I didn't mind paying a few dollars more. I will post my own feedback here after I've installed it.
