Although the leather is starting to "fade" on my factory Hurst ****, I have the WS6store short stick and factory leather wrapped Hurst ****. Great combo. I will replace the worn one soon with another factory Hurst ****.

I have the same and love it!
Mine isn't twenty years old, but it is well worn. I wouldn't have any other shifter. It gives a lot to grab when ripping through the gears.

Im going to be running one of the Hurst Classic White shifter *****. 6spd pattern on top. I got the one with the button on it. Its going to double as my reverse lock out button, and my line lock momentary button on my conversion. Just something about a darker interior, and having the shifter ball be white and stand out. reminds me of an older muscle car.

My car came stock with a Hurst shifter/****.

I got rid of the Hurst, now I've got a pro 5.0. I kept it that way but added the MBA **** and had that for awhile.

Now I bought a UMI short straight stick, and I love it. The MBA **** is threaded all the way to the top, so it actually makes it even shorter.

IMO, go MBA if you have a big hand/palm. Other wise the Hurst **** is the way to go. The MBA **** IS big, but it fits me perfect.

Z28 Ball on the Pro 5.0/UMI SS... though I'm ready for a new shifter handle as well. I used to have a billet Momo shifter in my last car but the aluminum got so hot in the sun

I might go for the MBA but I'm afraid of more 1st degree palm burns... otherwise I'll go for the hurst handle.
