this really hasnt anything to do w/ my tranny, but the camaro shifter is straight right? i want to cut it down and put a metal ball on it. i really dont want to take the booty off and cut it down at the bottom so can i jusy hack it off at top and pop on a ****?? if so, how do i get the one off there cuz i canst seem to get it off, i tried going counter clockwise....
