Thats a hurst billet plus shifter. That with a lss is a nice combination and very durable.

i know it is, i have the same shifter, the one pictured has the stock stick, I have the hurst stick. competition plus is a great shifter, not made anymore, you got a hell of a deal for $25

my hawk came with the optional hurst. i thought it sucked. got a pro 5.0... much better. save up for something quality instead of just half-assing it cuz you have a hole burning in your pocket.

i like it just fine. shifts like butter, doesnt vibrate like the hurst did, and you can yank on it as hard as you want.
