Agree. I had a cheetah in my 62, but the brain dead driver (me) occasionally didn't pay enough attention, and the result was a 1,3,2,3 shift. (and a round loss).
I repurposed the cheetah to the glide car where it functioned perfectly.
The rear entry of the cable is important, and the shifter itself is bullet proof.
But so is a Winters Sidewinder, also rear entry cable, also been around for 50 years (at least), also bullet proof, ...... and $200 cheaper than the T/A cheetah.
