Which shifter is good i have the stock hurst shifter right know i thought they were pretty good shifters, but i am thinking about getting a new one. I would like to hear what your personal experience is with one, and if i do get a new one will it be much different then stocker

 

my vote goes to the pro5.0 shifter....... loved it when my car was a 6spd. order one from SPEEDINC.

 

it will be worlds different from even the factory hurst shifter. much more positive feel.

 

i would get the luz shifter if i were you.... gee i wonder why

 

I just ordered the pro5.0, and a day later my pilot bearing went bad...two days after my warrenty expired :-( but anyway if you get it, get it on ebay its like 169 new from a distributer on there. I think its like blue oval something

 

search search and search. all the posts are the same with this one is seems. everyone has a different view. try some out in person if you can ( know someone who has one or go to a car show and ask to *feel* the stick ( not drive )

 

Id went with the B&M ripper shifter and love it, I know a few people whove had the B&M for years and no problems and it shifts great

 

Can't go wrong with either a Pro5.0 or the B&M. It's just a matter of how it feels for you.

 

Try getting a short stick (either lous or the UMI) for the stock hurst, I got the UMI, and it was a night and day difference.
Give it a shot, it may suit you fine, but if you don't like it you can always resell it (it's alot cheaper than a full shifter)
The hurst isn't bad, it's just saddled with the stock stick and its rubber isolater that makes the shifter feel like stirring a bucket of rocks with a stick

 

Consider that the Pro5.0 and B&M (not sure of other aftermarket shifters) have built in stops which saves the tranny's internal stops.

 

I say just get a short stick of some sort first, and see if that gives you the results you want. Either way, if you stay with the Hurst or move on to a Pro 5.0.... you will definitely still want a short stick.

I considered moving onto a pro 5.0 from my factory hurst, but I decided to try a UMI short stick first. Night and day difference, and now I am definitely not moving on. It only cost me $25 bucks for the Short stick.... the way I see it is that it saved me $125, cause now I dont have to buy a new shifter.

 

I went with the B&M ripper from summitt for two reasons 1:A little cheaper and 2:Where I live I could get it before the next weekend!
The B&M can be moved about a 1\4 inch forward or back . I don't know about the others.

 

B&M Ripper All the Way!!!!!!
