Short shifter

Where would be a good place to buy the B&M short shifter? Typically, how much should one cost? Currently I have the SMC/Pacesetter Quik Shifter and I don't like the quality of the material and shift action. I heard many good things about the B&M so I am willing to give it a try. Thank you.

Is this a good price for the B&M STS or is there a lower price elsewhere:

B&M notchy? On the contrary it's incredibly smooth. Besides he's coming from a Pacesetter....now thats notchy.

Make the switch man, I did and am completely satisfied. Never again do I feel like I'm armwrestling to shift gears. That plastic ball on the PaceSetter is garbage.

Where did you buy yours B&M from, and how much if you recall? For mine Pacesetter, its not the plastic ball that caused the issue, but the linkage connection where you attach the STS to the shift rod got deformed. This in turn caused the Pacesetter STS to feel vague and inconsistant with the shifts.
