Actually, in re-reading your post I have a question:

The 'normal' shift pattern for a ZF is for reverse to be up and to the left, first gear down and to the left (dogleg), and then 2nd through 5th in a normal H-pattern. Is that not what your car has, and if not, why not? Is this a Superformance alteration from original specification, or what? Do you have a cable shifter or a rod shifter? Center shift or sill shift? Do the cars with rod shift in the sill have the 'proper' shift pattern?
