I'm installing my Dieselgeek one tomorrow....it was cheaper than all of those by like 25% and has gotten good reviews, and the customer service has been excellent so far...the guy sent me their new aluminum model free of charge in lieu of the regular one I ordered because I asked him to.

You forgot v&s. That is what i have and the reason i got it was because they offer the most throw reduction ~43% to be exact, but they advertise it as 40%. Not only the throw reduction, in my group buy alot of people were switching from other SS because they were not satisfied. You can get it with a GB for $139 shipped. They gave exact directions on how to install and were super cool. They can cut the exact height if you request it, other wise they cut it 3/4" below stock and put extra threads on so if you wanna scut it you wont have to make new threads.

Just wondering if there's a short throw for the pushdown reverse that doesn't get rid of pushdown reverse. I actually like it that way.

Although I have a Neuspeed, I'm surprised that no one here has, likes, or recommends the Toyguy SS. I understand it's one of the best designed available. I didn't get one because he was so backordered that I couldn't wait that long. If I wasn't so impatient I would have gone with the Toyguy.
