Default C-5 Z06

I ordered myself a leather wrapped C5 Z06 **** from Fitchner Chevrolet in MT. I found out that the thred on the **** is different than what my pro 5.0 stick was threaded for. Ended up cutting a bolt down to size, cutting the stick and welding them together. Looks and feels great.

I had the factory leather black ball, and now I have the SLP shifter ****. I can not explain how much better the slp feels and how much more I like it. I think the **** made more of a difference to me then the Pro 5.0 did. Definately the best $40 i have spent on the car.

To get a T56 **** from the 03/04 cobras to fit, you must use the pro 5.0 shifter STICK for the 03/04 cobra, and then you can use the cobra ****.

I don't think you can even change the stick on the B&M one......
Well I guess I didnt read that post, because I got the Cobra shifter and I found out the hard way, that it wont fit. So I got the Hurst leather **** and Its gonna go on the ripper shifter. Unless I can get the CObra **** rethreaed.

During the summer I use the factory leather Hurst shift **** with Pro 5.0 and LSS. I switch it out for either my MBA 2.25" "SS" black ball **** or Hurst T-handle during the winter. The summer months are hot here, and those metal shift ***** will burn the **** out of your hand if the car sits out in the sun.

I got a cue ball shift **** from jegs that has the shift pattern etched in it. It's a bit larger than the stock leather ****. It fits my hand better. No pics right now though.

Sooooo true. I got the black stainless steel one as well and I didn't know I was going to get 2nd degree burns on my hand!! Probably a good thing I didn't get the engraved one, I might have an emblem burned to my palm

Would you want to sell the black pistol grip one? If not where did you get it from?

You can pick up the black Pistol grip Hursts on ebay cheaper than anywhere else. UMI also makes a direct knock off of the Hurst only it's all black with just UMI engraved into it. It's the same price as the Hurst is on ebay though.
