I enjoy the MGW shifter in my TA. Good balance between feel and ease of movement.

Agreed on the aluminum flywheel. I've had the Fidanza flywheel I have currently behind my stroker motor behind a stock LT1 when it was in my Formula and then the TA. Yes, I'd occasionally stall out on the start, but rev matching is so easy. My new to me 00 540i has a dual mass flywheel. I haven't gotten accustomed to how much throttle I need to give it to rev match. It's so much more than the aluminum. I'd switch on it too but the Bimmer's heavy and the transmission will rattle without the dual mass flywheel.

Congrats on getting the engine and trans put back together.
