Default ???~Hurst_Billet_Plus-OR-Pro_5.0~??

Hey guys i'm pulling out the ole B&M ripper shifter. It's junk foreal sorry for those who have had good luck with it, but it's not my cup of tea.... So any pics, pro's or con's about which shifter you'd choose over the other and why?

Never used the billet plus, but have used the ripper(stick was too long) stock hurst with 6" WS.6store stick and my wifes Pro 5.0 with Lou's short stick. Out of all of em, i really liked the Pro 5.0, and the stock hurst/short stick was close second.

Pro 5.0 works great but is loud, if that don't bug you then go for it. A great other shifter is the MGW shifts as well as the 5.0 but don't make near as much noise. I have had both and a Hurst and stuck with the MGW.

I have the Billet Plus with a Lou's short stick. I've had it for YEARS, and I still like it.

I like my Pro 5.0. I had the short stick on it and hated it. it was way to hard to engage gears, so i switched back to the stock 5.0 lever, and love it
