To my knowledge, only factory equipped in '85-'86, but I could be mistaken. I'm referring to what is known as the semi short shifter. Perhaps you're referring to the always optional M241 factory short shifter.

Factory semi-short shifter: about 10-12% shift throw reduction
M241 Factory short shifter; about 24% shift throw reduction

After '86, the factory went to the G50 gearbox which had it's own shift housing.
