Further from the body on the bellcranks, closer to the body on the changer for a shorter but stiffer throw.

Lee,

You're sure to get some good, competent help here from the guys on the forum. Unfortunately, I'm running behind this morning, and gotta get going. If, by chance, you don't get all the help you need here today, you can drop me a line, call me, or even bring it over this weekend if it's not too far for you.

Jim's right on the money.you can have short travel , But you have to be willing to put up with a stiff lever feel.
