Re: Hurst shifter problem
Bob
Next time see you, test drive my car and see what you think of Bills shifter. I thought the hurst was great until I tried it David QUOTE=Aurora40;108991]Huh, I think the Hurst is great. The shifter is waaayyyy more precise than the T56 in the Caddy. And I think it's much nicer than stock. The only thing I don't like about the Hurst is that the reverse lockout is gone. In the Caddy, 6th is sort of further to the right than 5th, so I get used to pushing the shifter slightly right and down. In the Z, this means it slides into the reverse gate. I've never ground the gears, but I always have to think about the 5-6 shift. Thankfully this is never a performance shift. What a weird problem, Ted. Any thoughts on how it deteriorated?[/QUOTE] |

Re: Hurst shifter problem
i took my hurst out and put bills in both my cars and very glad i did, hurst was somewhat notchy and bills very very smooth, and the fit was better too

Re: Hurst shifter problem
Defective Hurst must have been an early design. New one has needle bearings. New tranny back in car. Hopefully on the road tomorrow.
