It's all a waste if you look at it that way.
That makes no sense. What you want to do does nothing for performance and nothing for aesthetics because the shifts will still be delayed and not operate like a manumatic.
But if your project is to make a button shift automatic like they had back in the '50s , have at it. Maybe you want to get rid of the shifter so you can install a bench seat. Just a joke.
