This is the same combo I have and it's a nice, although I've never driven a T56 f-body with the stock shifter (non-Hurst) to compare. As stated above, it's a little notchy, but only when it's cold.

Also, the shifter **** will be about 1" to the right of where the stock **** sits (which I like), but some don't like that.

It shouldn't, are you sure you didn't bolt it down on the wrong side of the shifter? With the stock stick, you thread the bolts on from the passenger's side. With the short stick, you thread the bolts on from the driver's side.
