Great. I added new bushings as well and you can definitely tell the difference. Go Hurst and you won't regret it.

B&M do a good quality piece.... the only drawback with these short shifters is proper install, adjustment and drivers shifting too fast and hurting the tranmission....

IMO B&M has smoother shifts, and Hurst's knob loos better....

i slam through the gears hard and i have had my B&M on for 12,000miles and a good 30+ drag passes with it. it has never once failed me. i love the precise and smooth shifts it has

i have never installed a short shifter before...i just followed the instructions and there was no need for adjustment. i have virtually no play when it is gear

and have to thank TTR for giving me a great price on it!
