Mr. Gasket shifters are stocked at Advance Auto, they are under $100, they probably have one for saginaws
I would just get another rebuilt Saginaw if you dont wanna buy the shifter, since you aren't putting out torque/hp that would require something stronger. You can easily get one for $100 off craigslist in working order too.
Now if you do swap to a BW or Muncie, be mindful that even though they are around the same length, the shifter mounts in different places. So if you have a bench seat, this may be an issue, since the shifter will pop up from under the bench, rather then a saginaw which is much farther forward.
The only remedy for this would be a "bench bar", which is an arc shaped shift handle to get around the bench.
