Making a short throw shifter is not real hard to do. I did three different prototypes this weekend so I could see which one I'd like better.
1. One with just shortening the shifter height with a pre '90 shifter with the plastic pivot.
2. Raised the pivot point 1" with a stock height with a post '90 shifter with the metal pivot.
3. Raised the pivot point 1" and shortened the shifter height 3/4" with a post '90 shifter.
I used extra shifters from my parts car and another shifter I picked up salvage yard.
Good instructions here:

This one was also good but the link appears to be dead now:
