Yes Sir. About to order the TCI Outlaw.
Heard B&M had some problems with the 4speed.
Thanks

The best shifter is the one someone is using, lol.
I have only used the B & M Pro Ratchet, which worked OK.
The quality was a little weak on one, but I was able to tweak it. Some people have had problems with them, but sometimes its installer error.
Would be nice to see a bunch together and look at each one. I just prefer a ratchet type where the lever stays in the same spot, personal pref.

I've ran the proratchet in several projects. What I ended up finding with my D3 4l80e is I just left it in the drive position and programmed the shift rpms at the track
