I've been hunting around for a short shifter for my bird with little luck. I found a few via ebay but not sure if they will work with my car. Some state they are for mustangs with a t-5 tranny. Am I only looking for something designated t-5? Or does it have to specifically be for a firebird?

Look for one that fits 83-02 F-Bodies with M5 tranny.
Hurst Billet Plus, Pro 5.0, or B&M Ripper are your choices.Matt

HUU-3915032. Thats it! Its a short shifter with a slightly longer stick than stock. That and the stock knob won't fit on the long stick. If you want a short stick, get Lou's, part# 52502-BLK (stock knob will fit short stick) http://www.afterthoughtsauto.com/lousshortstick.html
to get a general idea on how to install, go to this site; scroll down and click on "Shifter Install": (they use a V8 camaro as an example)
