Racing Shift Knobs
I haven't found many aftermarket shift knobs that fit the C4 (especially if you want the correct shift pattern). My Facebook feed had been bombarded with advertisements from Raceseng recently so I decided to give them a look. Their knobs use adaptors to match any thread pattern. I bit the bullet during their July 4th sale and purchased the "Contour" knob in black texture finish. The knob arrived today and I am very impressed. Nice packaging (can reuse to store the factory knob), easy to install, identical shade of black to the factory knob, works with the reverse lockout, sits a hair lower, and improved shifter feel due to the 500g weight.
https://www.raceseng.com/products/sh...et/c4-corvette I use a rubber collar around the reverse lockout to keep it from rattling (pic 3). The gap is identical with the Raceseng knob so I didn't have to make a new collar. Last edited by GOLDCYLON; 07-19-2020 at 08:57 PM. |

Re: Raceseng Shift Knobs
Looks good on there. I used the titanium shift knob out of my old subaru sti. I just drilled out the old threads and re-taped it. fits just like your knob above.

Re: Raceseng Shift Knobs
After buying and sending back many " reproduction" C4 knobs because of the crap quality, I just went and bought an OEM C5 knob. Screwed right on and looks as if it were stock.

Re: Racing Shift Knobs
This was the stock shifter on my '68 Hemi Road Runner. Felt just right; I think it was a 2" ball--Bob
