Aftermarket shifters for a 6L80 transmission

Anyone have any suggestions on an aftermarket shifter for the GM 6L80 transmission?

Vehicle's intent

I am putting a Y76 (6.0 L) with a 6L80 out of a 2008 Pontiac G8 GT into a '81 Chevy pickup that I'm completely redoing. My intent is to get it as close to what I can to make it Pro-Touring capable, along with a little street and strip action just for grins.

There was a post on this awhile ago on the LS1tech forum. I seem to remember the guy used an OEM shifter and hooked it to a bellcrank. I can't get on LS1tech...but hit it up and you'll find it. The guy was putting a L92 and 6L80 in a Jeep wrangler I think

As the 6L80/90E electronically shifts 2 Gears, any good 4 speed shifter will work-I am using this on my 4L80E (or, you could get a Z06 Shifter, and a Twist Machine paddle shifter)-

Thanks guys. I can't believe what a jeep wrangler would be like with an L92 in it let alone it having 2 overdrives! I'd be scared at any sort of high speeds!
And I'll look up Twist Machine.
