I second the Pro 5.0 shifter. I put one in my '85 GT and loved it. Gonna put one in my '67 too. I think they cost around $200.

I have a Pro 5.0 and I use a Hurst 60s style handle and love it. It makes the throw just a touch longer but the feel is great.

Pro 5.0 with a MGW adjustable handle, then put a T handle knob.
Check it out here http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang.html The handle can be extended & rotated to point the handle to you while driveing.

Short shifter != short handle.

The Hurst shifter added to the T-5 set up really looks cool. Put on a "4 speed" knob and really have a neat set up.
