Shifter stops required?

[Spitfire]

I was watching Horsepower TV or one of those shows recently, and the big guy had a z28 in which they installed a B&M shifter.
They said at the end that they didn't bother to set the shifter stops because all T-56s have internal ones....what do you guys think?

You don't have to, but it's a good precaution.
Yes, adjust the shift stops.

Unless you shift like an old lady, then don't worry about is..........

Unlike most cases, this time believe the TV. All the other crap is just voodo. If you need to rub a rabbits foot and kiss the blarney stone , listen to the mis information posted here( you can dis reguard this too if you wish) But , again, the stops only protect for an over shift condition. There are internal stops which makes them useless. What damages forks is a missed / clashed shift. Stops do nothing for this.
