Default Shifter **** ideas?
Is there anyplace other than Year One or Hurst/Mr. Gasket that make shifter ***** for the T-56? I don't want to have to go to the trouble of getting one tapped to fit.

I got a B&M Hammerhead on my B&M Shifter, but it will work on the stocker as well. Nice chrome piece, and goes right on with the supplied jam nut. Got mine out of Summit.

Anyone know where I can get a custom one made? I need something to accent the interior colors and possibly have either the bowtie, or z28 symbol on it.

Thanks for the replies. I'm looking for a shifter possibly with a LS1-style firebird on it. Silver/aluminum or carbon fiber in color. Possibly even an 8-ball shifter. Something to match my ebony black interior.

I have a hurst, and the stocker. I dont really like the feel of the hurst for the 2-3 shift though. I think im going to go with a flameball.

I just got a silver **** from MBA. It is a little cold in the morning. I don't want to think about what it will be like come summer time. The car was sitting in the sun all day today and it wasn't hot at all, it was about 60-65 today.

I'm not worried about the aluminum being hot or cold. My Firehawk is garage kept and driven maybe 2500 miles per year. I love the look of the aluminum shifter in a Ferrari. My cam is going in this weekend, when it's done my next "little" mod is going to be a short stick and polished ball.

That's the company that did my custom B&M ****. They do great work & can inlay any logo you want. I highly recommend them. Here's the link to when I first posted it:

does anyone know if anyone's selling shifter ***** like the one in Gone In 60 Seconds?

I'd love to have "Go baby Go" with button.
