Default Short throw shifter

I am looking at putting a short throw shifter in my 01 GT. It has the T-3650. Does anyone have any good recommendations?--- Or any to avoid. AreHurst any good?

Plenty of good threads on this one... MGW is a great quality product. I would consider it if I were you.

For what its worth, my car came with a Steeda. I replaced it with an MGW and like it better. I think the MGW shifts smoother and is a more solid made shifter.

I like my MGW...it had mixed feelings about it when I first installed it. But two weeks later, I fell in love.

www.mgwltd.com and call it a day. Don't forget to order the cheap inner boot and get some Royal Purple synthetic trans fluid (or Mobil 1) and change the fluid when you do the shifter swap.

helps muffle noise, makes shifting easier and helps prevent dust. I ordered it when I ordered my MGW on tuesday.
