To be honest, I can't say for sure as I had the cable bushings in first, and I'm certainly not about reinstall the stock ones to let you know

but logically speaking, consider this... your shifter can be stiffened up but when you change gears and actuate your shift rods, there still will be a bit of flex in the linkage bushings.. so you've probably felt a huge difference from stock already, but not 100% of the lever movement is instantly translated to the transmission due to the rubber bushings being slightly compressed before actuating anything inside the transmission. I guarantee that you won't notice as much of a difference putting these in compared to a short shifter, but I feel they are definitely worthwhile..
