What stick to get for a B&M? Well here is the deal. I got a B&M shifter from a guy when i bought a rearend from him. The only problem is he didn't have the stick for it. So what stick can i get for it? I looked at some aftermarket ones from the sponsors>>>> but they all said they would work with is 5.0, hurst, ect. None of them said anything about B&M. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

B&M shifters don't have the same setup as the pro 5.0, stock etc. All of those have a 2 piece setup with the shifter itself, and a seperate stick that mounts to the shifter with 2 bolts. The B&M has a 1pc. setup, as in the part that you grab with your hand, is the same stick that imputs into the transmission. So you would have to find one of those, which im not sure if they are available. There is usually no reason to seperate the shifter from the stick with a B&M since no one makes a shorter stick for the B&M.

. So am i going to have to get a stick made or will that Lou's Short shifter or any other brand work? I know the threads weren't the same as the ones from JP's Pro 5.0 and Hurst.
