I like the Hurst Mastershift 3 Speed. It is a 3 speed equivalent of the Hurst Competition Plus 4 speed.

Re: Floor shifter /needed?
it is a mr gasket, but when you go into firts gear, sometimes looks like the pin mechanisim allows the shifter arm to go way to far forward, I have not adjusted the stops bolt to good so i'll give it a try first,
thanks to all who posted a reply. |
