Default Hurst Installed

I got the Hurst close ratio shifter today and installed it, took about two hours (I'm slow), and was an easy install with no problems, Man, does it feel different, It's freezing rain outside so I can't give it a road test. It's supposed to be clear and dry tomorrow so I might get a chance to test it out after work. It really looks cool to me, I didn't like the look of the stock shifter.

Congrats on the new install, I'd ask you how you like it, but I already know.

Good deal.
This is one of the first good, not expensive mod you can do the first day you get the car.

The majority of people are happy with it, me included.

I was going to purchase one but a few people said it was really clunky/unsmooth compared to stock and the MGW's....Is this true in your opinion?

The Hurst is described as notchy. To me it shifts nicely, but it feels as if you're on the short end of a lever.

I got one the other day. Ive got about 2 months till I come home and get to install it. My wife thinks Im crazy because it has a perfectly good shifter but I didnt like the stock one when I drove it on leave.
