anyone in orlando with a pro5.0 or MGW? Im looking to get a shifter as my first "mod" after I get all this maintenance **** out of the way.. I was wondering if anyone on my side of town had a pro5.0 or an MGW that I could take around the block to see which I like better.. I had a pro5.0 on my mustang and hated it.. never hit 3rd, but everyone on here swears to pro5.0 on these cars, and ppl seem to like the MGW short throw as well..
lmk if anyones got one, even if you dont live close, any input would be nice.

I have the Pro 5.0 but it won't be a good representation of it due to the aftermarket parts in my T56. I don't recall exactly what they're called, but I had something installed for gears 1-2 and 3-4 which enhance longevity but make the shifting slightly notchier. No experience with the MGW, but I've always had Jake Lamotta in Longwood rebuild my tranny's ever since the car was out of warranty. He's been rebuilding Tremec's in Mustangs for years and I trust him when he says to use a shifter which has a overthrow stop mechanism built in.

Just got my car back from Lamotta. They did a stg 2 tranny rebuild, monster stg 3 and old mgw. CRAZY!!!! No pedal effort crisp shifts you can really feel it go into gear. and pretty sure MGW has a overthrow built in also.
