I am torn myself.

Pelican has the Porsche short shift installation procedure very well documented.

The Porsche kit looks much more complicated than the Welt kit. Apparently the p-kit was a factory option in the later models.

Welt is of a very basic principle of moving the fulcrum point up higher which makes for a shorter throw, but requires more arm force. Welt also suggests that the p-kit can break under hard use, but I do not understand why? I am assuming the p-kit will require the same arm force as the stock set up. The Welt kit should reduce the throw more than the p-kit, I think 41% vs 32%.

I am sure people on the list have done this conversion... User opinions please!

Thanks,
