What finish is that? How do you like the feel compared to factory? I've been seriously thinking of getting the M1 abrams knob.

The finish is gun metal blue. I love the feel of it. It's much heavier than the stock and the vodoo knobs. The shape is the same as vodoo, but the weight makes it feel a lot better.

Ryan has the same one on an axial flow short shifter and it is godly how short his throw is now!

yeah, the throw was already short with just the ss but now I can adjust it to be even shorter. I had a problem with the shifter rattling when I got above 4k but the added weight of the knob solved that. I love the gun blue finish, I think it complements the interior well, especially James' since he has the black trim over the cupholder. Jimmy also has one that has a polished finish that matches the shift boot trim perfectly. Of course he's also removed the paint covering that piece which, IMO, looks better.

They actually sit at the same height. Just the angle of the picture.
