    I had the Hurst Competition+ for a while... the one without the shift stop bolts. It was OK. I replaced it with the Pro5.0, which was a much beter built, more precise shifter.

    I had one of the SLP short throws that came with the T56 out of a 30th SS. It was very similar to the Hurst Comp+, but the top plate was a little thinner, and it required you to reuse the stock shift lever with the rubber bushing on it. Resold it, never installed it.

      I think I would be leary of installing anything made by anyone with 5.0 in their name for a chevy. It might suck HP out of my engine or turn my bowties blue or somthing.

        Awesome topic...I've been tossing around the idea of upgrading the shifter in the car I'm about to purchase. I was thinking about getting Hurst, but it's nice to see some of the other opinions!
        I can give you a deal on a SLP Hurst shifter.

        BTW you need to update your signature.

          I have the SLP in my car now...I don't like it nearly as much as my Pro 5.0.

          I had the Hurst a while back...the Pro 5.0 is the best IMHO
