Emailed some info to another SAU member and thought id post it up here aswell:

This shifter is used to prevent missed gear changes mainly in dog engagement gearboxes.

I messed up once and it cost me.

This is how it works.

The outer aluminum shaft of the shifter is spring loaded up and down, the first picture is in street mode you can freely shift into all gears.

Second picture is when its in drag mode, the outer shaft drops down and is ready for the 1st to 2nd shift.

Once the shifter passes the step it cannot jump back up and into 1st gear and can only go to 3rd.

In drag mode the shifter cannot be changed into 5th or reverse.

The front of the gear knob has a small U shape cut out, this is for the grub screw to fall into when its in street mode which holds the out shaft up...

The shifter has a aluminum spacer that bolts to the gearbox that raises the pivot point up like normal quick shifter... In a way is almost like a straight line shifter just pull it back and push it forward...

For normal use the standard shifter is much easier for daily driving with the dog box, it did take a little bit to of time to get the timing back for smooth operation of the dog gears but not to bad.

Sorry for the low quality iphone pics....

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
