Hurst or MGW
Ok so I needing a new shifter. I am just finishing a GT swap and I torn between the MGW and Hurst.
I had a Hurst in the 6er and the dang thing rattled like mad and it drove me crazy. They are cheaper and maybe the billet version is better for the T3650?
MGW is supposed to be the best of the best but they are more expensive and I not really sure where to get one.

I have my Hurst because it was what I had in my 1970 Mach 1, with a T handle so it is more nostalgic than performance. I was disappointed it was made in China, but the Billet Pro Plus quality is still pretty good.
The negatives with mine are it loosened after install, and I made it tight... and it has a polyurethane squeak that I have to get back in there and lube it up better. I followed the instructions.. but things happen.
Over stock it is a huge improvement, but I admit it is not as refined than I might like.
Based on all the comments and research, it would seem MGW would be a great choice unless you have other reasons like I did.

And if the Hurst look is important, you can have the best of both worlds by modifying a Hurst chrome handle to work in the MGW like this:
