I have the ws6store 6" short shifter, and so far it works really well. Definately shortens throws and makes it easier to hit 3rd on a hard/ fast shift. Mine loosened up on me after about 3-4 days, but I just re-tightened it and it's been good since.Quote:

Are you gonna get the whole shifter w/plate or just the handle? I got the ws6store one just because it was $24.00 shipped, and my friend has it, so figured it was just a good deal. I like it so far.Quote:

the pro 5.0 is kick ass i have it in my ta and love it you dont need to get a aftermarket stick with it i got the ws6 store combo and put the 5.0 stick bake on for comfoert. easy install it gets a littal nosie at times so exspect that but its a good way to go.
Speed Inc. angled short stick!
I have the WS6 short stick.
I like it overall, you just have to get used to not having an angled shifter, which makes it feel kind of strange at first because the position of the gears is all different. You just have to get used to it though, then its fine.
I agree, and you definately have to throw a little bit harder (or more firmly) because there's no big ass weight on the bottom of the handle. I like it though, and again, it was inexpensive...Quote:

I've had the pro 5.0 in my trunk for 6 months. I need to figure out how to get it installed. lol
Just bought a WS6 store handle to go on my Pro 5.0. I'll keep you posted. Love the Pro 5.0 but wanted a little shorter handle.
I got the Hurst shifter, and have no complaints at all from it, it has a great feel and great look with the white ball shifter
My car came with the hurst shifter. Still using that with a Lou's Short Stick.
One of my favorite mods for sure.
