Pro 5.0 in my '95 V6 and '96 Z28. Hurst (Factory) in my '99. It'll be replaced by a 5.0 soon. Hate how sloppy the Hurst feels in comparison.

Damn I love the pro 5.0 now I got it perfect now and I can shift it fast as ****. It is just notchy enough but not too notchy.

I raced my friend's LT1 on a road course with a Ripper and it just didn't feel solid. My Pro 5.0 is a little notchy at idle and transmits some noise. But when racing it's rock solid...snaps right into gear, no over-travel. Maybe my friends wasn't installed correctly, but I voted Pro 5.0.

Im not sure why you guys get noise from the pro 5.0 mine is no louder then stock.

I made a homemade gasket, instead of RTV. No noise what so ever.

I used RTV and still no noise and lets hope it stays that way lol.

Agreed, I feel that the 5.0 is too notchy feeling for me. Some like the "mechanical" feel of the 5.0 but I dont. I had a 95GT once that I had a 5.0, Ripper and a Steeda shifter in....Steeda hands down, no contest.

its all i've ever had but i love my pro 5.0 w/ the short stick from speed inc.

Yeah, sometimes I wish they made the Tri-Ax for our cars.

I bought my car with the B&M in it. I have nothing to compare it to, but I don't really like it. I'm going to try the 5.0 and see if I like it better.

for those using the Pro 5.0... I had the WS6store short stick on there but I didn't like that it moved the position of the **** so far to the right.. When you cut your Pro 5.0 sticks, where are you cutting them? Like if you took an inch or so chunk out of the middle do you just have it tack welded back together?

cut some of the threads off, i think i cut about an inch. now my stock leather ball sits on the boot

I may have to give that a shot. I didn't know if people were cutting some of the MANY threads off or if they were just cutting a chunck out of the middle and having it tack welded back together.

dailydriver

As far as I'm aware, EVERYONE just cuts the threads. Would you trust "banging the gears" hard with just tack welds holding the stick together??!

ehh, coulda been welded all the way around

My stock shifter is pretty notchy already, but I'm pretty sure the transmission fluid hasn't been changed before. How is the Pro 5.0 and does the LSS make it notchier?

rich Z

The shorter the stick the notchier the shift because of the loss of leverage. I have a pro5.0 sitting above me on a shelf because of the sloppiness and constant mis shifting. Running the stock hurst with lou's and I like it better and I never mis shift with it. The problem with mine is the springs are crap. The trans will feel like it's all the way into gear when it's not with the pro so I will get a grind. This NEVER happens with the hurst. However I didn't have this issue when the pro was new. I'm gonna get some never springs, stiffer one's and try it again.
