ZF Doc short throw shifters - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

1991 Corvette ZR-1 · 02-24-2021

The stock unit has a pretty long throw. I would think it is this way to accommodate all levels of strength that differ per driver. My wife had some friends over and one of them has loved Vettes all her life and wants one. She was excited to sit in mine when I offered. She even got to start it but she had to get it in neutral first. I could see it took a lot of effort from her pulling it from first to neutral but mine has the ZF doc short shifter. Yes, she did have the clutch pedal pushed down.
