Bigworm has also built a couple of W58 short shifters.

The concept is really quite simple, make a spacer plate of thickness "X" to go between the gearbox and the shifter. Cut the bottom part of the shifter and weld in an extension of length "X".

This simply changes the ratio of shaft below and above the pivot point. To figure out how much the shift will be affected calculatet he ratio of the two lengths on the original. The figure out what percentage of the original shift length you want and do the maths to see what the value for the lower shaft lenght needs to be.
