Default C6 shift ****

Does anyone know where to get a C6 style shift **** for an F body? The 6 speed not the auto.

order one online, and all you have to do is drill it and tap it with a 14.5mm tap. easy

There is a website that you can order the ***** that are already fitted to fit the fbods. I ordered one about a month ago for around 100 bucks. I will look at my invoice tonight for the website.

Ok here is the website... hope this is what you guys were looking for...
http://www.gscreationsllc.com/produc...6a2f9d07759cd8

Also BEWARE! The C6 style shift **** will sit higher then the Hurst or SLP shifters... I believe this is due to the threading. So you may not like the look... check my pic out of the shifter on my bird. Pics are at the bottom.

dont order from there its a rip off when i had my c6 **** order this one

http://www.corvetterecycling.com/pro...20100125-3.htm

the inside of the **** is hollow plastic so take you short stick put it in a vise grip to lock it and turn the **** on it will thread itself the c6 **** sits high because the stick wont go to the top of the **** i had my short stick cut in the middle with an 1"-1 1/2" taken out and welded back together heres how mine looked

Default Shift *****

Have a look at the sweet ***** over on the MGW website.

www.mgwltd.com

I think if you call they may tap these to whatever size you need if they don't have it already.

Not to try and take GSCreations up or anything... Their item was as stated. I got the shifter in the mail and screwed it directly on. Price may have been a little high... but honestly I would rather pay a little more than have to screw with it.

i found mine on ebay brand new for 40 $ shipped. the reason the **** wont go on is cuz of the plastic tab half way in the shift ****... i just drilled that out and it worked perfect. i got the **** on all the way and the **** is at the perfect height that i want it at

So just to clarify... there is a plastic tab half way up and you just drilled it out and it screwed down further. I might have to try that.

yup exactly. just get a light and look down inside the ****. or feel in there with your finger. just be careful if you are going to drill it out that you dont go to far and to the end of the **** or you could mess stuff up... or go right through. i just did mine a little at a time and kept checkin it till it was just right. worked perfect for me
