I have the UMI stick on my PRO 5.0 and it doesn't hit. I had some ebay short stick on my stocker and it didn't hit either.

X2

Same combo for me and no problems,

Before the PRO 5.0 I ran the UMI stick on my stock factory Hurst and that didn't hit either, not sure if it would hit or not on the non-Hurst stock shifter.

Those are the guys that usually have trouble with them. I've always heard that the non-hurst shifter with the short stick usually hits the console.

That's always what I've heard/seen also. GroundPoundin, it might be worth your while to surf the Classifieds to see if some Hurst owner maybe replaced their factory Hurst with a Pro 5.0 and pick up their used Hurst cheap. Then you'll have a lot of different short sticks, different angles and lengths, at your disposal.

yeh but im not trying to put more money in the car...ive almost completely demodded the car to sell and just wanted to put a short stick in it to ditch the stock stick...the car originally had a b&m but its long gone...i may just take a chance on the TNA stick and finess it to fit!
