Re: B&M on the bay
do you have one of these John? i haven't really noticed anybody talking much about aftermarket (B&M/Hurst) shifters for our cars. i have never went looking for any threads either, to be fair. is there much improvement or not a ton? i know the Viper guys say they help quite a bit. just wondering...

Re: B&M on the bay
I have the Hurst and there is quite a difference. Much better shifts and more positive feel.
Haven't tried the B & M, Bill Boudreau www.zfdoc.com modifies them. He installed one in Uly's car in Vegas and it has the shortest throws I've ever seen.

Re: B&M on the bay
can you tell it's in place of the stock shifter or no? i wonder if the B&M & Hurst are going to end up being the same in time now that B&M ownes Hurst?

 I like mine, I was consistantly missing third gear with the factory shifter, now--notsomuch... I do like the feel, and they aren't hard to install at all.
