I have a Hurst Competition Plus shifter for my 6spd and love it. I took out the factory Hurst shifter and sold that POS for a real HURST!!!

No poll. I have a Pro 5.0, but seriously, any aftermarket shifter is going to be better than stock and are basically all the same.

Pro 5.0 + Lous short stick = shortest shifter.

Like said above there all pretty much the same so pick the one you like.

I don't believe so. I think it is unique to the WS6 store. Got mine for $24.99, free shipping :)

You really think the T56 is sloppy?? :think:

My T56 + Pro 5.0 + WS6 Short stick is anything but sloppy.

Its easily the most precise and direct feeling shifter/transmission I've ever used.

its a fact that these T-56's are kinda junk, powershiftin, bent shift forks, the earlier t-56's are neways

Junk?? No.

Did they have some issues with the earlier ones?? Sure.

When I get mine rebuilt (bad synchros and bearings, someone beat on it pretty bad) I'll be sure to use the upgraded components from the newer T56's. Meaning cast iron forks, carbon fiber blocker rings, ect.

Man, I don't mean to get on your case again, but, T56's are not SLOPPY JUNK. You want sloppy, go drive a Honda. T56's are in vets, vipers, GTO's, and once in the Rustang.

I Like The T-56 Trannys Too. But I Know You Need To Upgrade Them Cuz They Dont Have Carbon Synco Rings.. They Have Papper Gasket.. Read T-56 Rebuild Gm High Tech Perfom. I Think Last Issue. I Have The Stock Shifter And It Work Well In My Opinion.. I Don't Think Your Gonna Get Much Shorter Than The Stock One Maybe Another Half Inch.. But Who In The Hella Wants A Joystick.. Leave That Up Too Evo's And Subrus

Hmph. All the Lous short stick is..is a shorter shift shaft. The problem the stockers have is in the base...which you havent replaced.
