short throw shifters

What does everyone have for short throw sifters

I have a hurst billet plus and i like it alot more than stock. Much more precise shifting but the handle is much shorter than stock and that it is kind of annoying in mustang unlimited they sell the steeda tri ax shift handle. they say it fits most popular short throw shifters and is taller than the one that came on the short throw has anyone every installed one of these

Do some kind of Chinese torture and have somebody pull on your arm until it lengthens out some more! just kidding...

The tri ax is pretty tall, but my old mustang had a Pro 5.0 and i loved that thing!

MGW all the way

it dosent bother me as much as it used to I guess I got used to it I have pretty long arms and it was a reach and weird to get used to it when I bought it so I was thinking that if it was weird for me with long arms than it must be really tough for shorter people

Oh I go with Hurst all the way because i have always had good luck with there shifters and they have been making them for ever so they gotta be pretty good at it by now

i have a Pro 5.0 shifter and its great but my brother had an MGW on his...i say go with the MGW it is incredible and has a very good range of positioning for your liking

I just bought a MGW and man, it is nice. I raced a Auto LT1 Trans Am [ he is in my car club ] with a passenger in my car and none in his and I lost by half a car. I switched shifters, was neck and neck, with a passenger and beat him without a passenger in my car......

It took 15 mins to install, I can't say enough good thigs about the MGW

I like the Tri-ax, the Pro 5.0 and Hurst is ok too. My personal favorite is a Pro 5.0 base with a Tri-ax handle. For some reason that set up feels better than any other shifter.

will a tri-ax handle fit a hurst base

Kingcater · May 11th, 2007, 06:11 PM

MGW or PRO 5.0 Is the only way to go...I didn't like my Tri-Ax
