I had a short-shifter put on my Teg not too long ago, & the guy said he
would have to cut the heat shield a bit to make it (the s.s.) fit, so I gave
him the ok to do it. I still feel it grind something (the heat shield?, but
not the gears) a bit sometimes, & sometimes it doesn't want to go into 1st
too easily. Oh well.
