I'm using a B&M shifter. The swap was pretty simple, pull the linkages off the steering column, bolt up the cable bracket to the tranny and attach the cable end to the shift lever. Because it's cable operated you can mount the shifter anywhere you please which makes it especially nice if you have bucket seats and can put it right next to the driver's seat.

I mounted a floor shifter from a Tempo on the 92 F350 that I switched to a Cummins/auto from a 5 speed manual. It works pretty nice, also used a cover from an Escort to make it look ok.
