Default Help me find a shift ****..

I need a nice shift **** that doesn't hit with the ws6 stores 6inch short stick shifter installed. My stock **** hits in the 2nd and 4th gears. Any recommendations would be great but I don't wanna spend like $70 on a shift **** here looking more for something cheaper that looks and feels nice and also doesn't hit with that short stick in there. Thanks

Are you using a non-hurst stock shifter base? If so this may be your problem. If you can find a stock Hurst base shifter then this may solve your problem. A lot of the straight short sticks work great on the Hurst equipped cars (mine doesnt hit and I have the ws6store 6.0" with hurst stock shifter with hurst stock ****) but not so great on the not hurst stock shifters.
