Short Throw Shifters


is there a big difference btwn a regular Hurst short throw, and a Pro 5.0? cause I want the 5.0, but not if I'm paying $160 extra just for a name...

from what i've HEARD, the hurst is really good. Everybody says that the mgw is the best though.

I would just go with the hurst since it is so much cheaper.

Hurst is a good shifter, But you might as well do it right the first time and get the MGW.

i just installed my hurst this weekend and LOVE IT!! havent messed with the mgw though. but for the price of the hurst and the ease of installation it is well worth it. just make sure you get some blue threadlocker for either one.

Everything you've heard about the MGW is right on. Spend a couple of bucks more and get the best. You won't regret it.

wish it was only a couple of bucks more. It's not though, it's $100 more. Is that worth it when the other product does pretty much the same thing?

thats the exact delima i went through when i went to purchase mine. The fact that hurst has been around forever and is known to make a good product for american muscle cars along with there unbeatable price is what persuaded me to go with them.



I think its a Texas thing Juco...haha
