Mr.P forgot to mention, i want the free nuetral shifter after 3rd going through the stripe. so i'm wondering if pushing might be the better way to go. ppp sells either style. just wondering if after all these years, gpoing from pulling to pushing might mess me up. 
This will reduce the number of companies that you
will have(with the clean neutral)... myself I prefer
to pull and I think it will be easier to find with
what you want

We use the PPP Shifter in the push mode. 1-2-3-Clean neutral...All going forward. I personally like it better. Its all what you like. One of my friends has a PPP shifter that is a puller and I didnt like that because of how I had to pull the trigger lever. The forward pattern is a simple slap slap. To go into clean neutral, the pull trigger needs to be pulled on.

Pull - Push - Pull
Oh wait, I have an extra pedal also. What am I supposed to do with that?
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Something wrong here. you do not have to pull no trigger to shift. easy to shift.

Its been a few years, but my friend that purchased the PPP shifter that is set up as a puller, didnt operate the same as when it was a pusher. I vaguely remember that it pulled into second without pulling the trigger lever, but then to go from 2nd to 3rd, the trigger lever needed to be pulled. I could be wrong because I didnt drive the car. The push set up seemed much more simple, especially with the clean neutral.
I just checked with PPP and VernMotor is right, the trigger lever does not need to be pulled in order to go from 2nd to 3rd when its a puller. Its a matter of preferance really, I am just more comfortable with the push shift. I rest my palm on top of the shifter and shift with my thumb pushing. I dont have to grap the shifter to pull. Just my opinion. Im not saying one is better than the other.
