Hey, if you're building a turbo 18RG, you might want to go in on a group buy for custom head studs that we're organising at the moment. I've been told that the original head bolts stretch after a while running boost.

PM me if your intersted. The price is $200 if we can get enough people, otherwise it would cost $400 for one set.

YelloRolla is organising the actual purchase.

As for your gearbox questions, the longer shift lengths will go in, you'll just have to cut a bit of a hole in the transmission tunnel in you floor pan. It's been done successfully before, just that your centre console might not quite line up properly again.
I reckon the longest position is about 21". 3 inches isn't much to make up, it might even make it better to drive. The gearknob on the W55 that we got is a fair way forward of where the old W50 one was just due to stick angle.
