Hurst shifter

**Rare99Firehawk** · 02-18-2008, 04:48 PM

I saw a trans am the other day that had a chrome shifter handle which said hurst on it, It looked like the handle on the old competition plus shifters, just a chrome short throw handle. Has anyone seen one of these? or know where I might be able to find one, The one I saw was on a T56 it looked nice. thanks

Oh,,,well I know what firehawk is looking for, I just don't know where to tell him to look for one on a T-56.
I have a real comp plus on the shelf for a muncie, I'll have to snap a picture of it tomorrow for an example.

I have the stick you're referring to on my car. It's a Hurst Billet Plus # 391-5061 - Sorry I don't have any pics...

**kikaofazz** · 02-18-2008, 07:17 PM

BTW it's a single-piece unit, so the shifter stick is NOT removable if you ever want to change sticks. Just figured I'd throw that in there.

He's talkin about the flat piece of chrome, that has 2 bolt holes and accepts the 6spd knobs... i think

Nope it's not the Hurst billet plus,,,,I have that shifter on my 6 speed 4th gen and the shifter stick is black,,,,not chrome like the old comp plus shifters of years before. It's old school stuff. I will have a pic in a few minutes.

Well here's a shot of a real comp plus shifter but I forgot it's the only one that isn't burried and still attatched to a muncie covered with bellhousings,,,up high on the shelf. Soooo the picture isn't the best,,,but I didn't feel like dragging it down at 7 am in the morning,,,lol.

You are corrected, sir!! It is indeed a Billet Plus. They no longer make the comp plus like you posted in the above pic. You have #391-5060 on your car, not #391-5061 Look it up on Hurst-shifters.com! No offense, but do your homework, before you tell me what I installed on my car.

You need homework as well,,,,,that picture above is indeed a comp plus that is still made today,,,the one in the picture is actually a Comp Plus for 70-72 A-body (chevelle, monte carlo) for a console application. It has a slight offset to accomodate a console, slightly different for a non-console car.
I simply posted the picture to give others an "idea" of the look that Mr. Firehawk was after.

I just purchased a billet plus for the 6 speed car,,,only one part number listed in their current catalog,,,and it's a black handle shifter.
If you claimed to have the chrome stick then a simple picture would have cleared things up a bit, not to mention saying it wasn't available would have helped,,,,,no need to get your panties in a twist over it,,,sheeesh. Some of you kids have to be the touchiest people I have ever talked to about cars,,,,well that and corvette people

I wasn't flaming, nor was I trying to be a dick, just giving out the right information to the OP. If you tried their online catalog, you will find the product listed. Enjoy the pics (If they work)...
