I'm looking to buy the hurst pistol shifter with the button on top and was wondering if anyone has one or has ran one? I have a th400 it's going on and wanted to know if they like it.

I had a quarterstick in my car (carter01 has it all now) and it was great, minimal clearancing, we just mounted the shifter on an a4 base plate and built it up a little with a peice of bar.
I won't hesitate to buy another one when I get the car back together, glide going in this time around, and I'd use it again. I am ditching the console though, so whatever I buy I'll have to put the case around it, so it looks somewhat finished.

I would like to keep the console to keep it clean inside. I spray the car ever now and then and I had acouple passes wear it broke loose on the spray and I had to lift and shut the switch off. I'd like to have the spray switch on the shifter so all I have to do is release it if it gets loose.
Do you bump it into the next gear or pull back on the bar mounted to the shifter to hit the next gear? I don't care to much for the ratchet shifters.

Depends on the tranny valve body. If you have a reverse manual valve body you will pull back, if it's a forward valve body you push forward.
I'm not sure if you can set a shifter up so you pull it even if it's a forward valve body, that's possible.
I would leave the nitrous on a WOT switch, and if the car gets loose just pull the next gear the bog will make it catch.

I would either have a Quarterstick as well, WHEN the TH-400 or 4L80e goes in. I had also considered B&M Hammer Shifter as I liked the look and the way it gripped, since the car would be street driven, something I had considered.
No push button activation switch but I just like the look and expected feel.

Mine was set up different. I had to pull back on the 2ndary handle when going from 2-3 the 1/2 shift idn't require any use of the 2ndary lever.
I also had to pull back on the lever to get otu of park I think... it's been a while.
PM carter01 on here he has my old tranny/shifter setup I'm sure he can tell you how it's set up.
