Yes, believe it or not, even has a different part number -155173. It's longer as well -

Originally when I machined the one  in my car now, I didn’t have a GT6 lever only a Spitfire Non OD lever, and I patterned it after that.  However they are a bit longer than the GT6 overdrive ones and I haven’t been able to find a correct lever or even one in a car to measure it.  So if anyone has a GT6 with overdrive, and could give me a measurement I can extrapolate the rest.  The current OD lever I made, when shifted into first gear measures 10 inches from the top rear of the tunnel to the highest part of the shift knob cap (the one with the switch in it).  If I could get a similar measurement from a GT6 with the original OD lever in it, I can guesstimate the rest.  I don't want the column mounted switch, I LIKE the lever mounted one, but I would like it to be the correct length.
