How does a short shifter kit work? Is the shift lever merely a bit shorted than stock or is the length between gear locations "notches"? reduced?

My aged and often cranky back really doesn't like the long reach to get to 2nd and 4th in '70 911 T. I would like a shorter throw but NOT a shorter lever. Any advice, opinions, suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Merci beau, in advance...

Gear location notches are set in the transmission at the factory and cannot be changed. Short throw simply means a shorter upper part of the lever, so the distance your hand has to move between shifts is shorter.
