Don't pass up checking the Pro 5.0 as well. Excellent shifter. I have a new MGW in the car right now (second one) and a Pro 5.0 in the mail (which I've ran before in this car). I'm swapping out the MGW when the Pro 5.0 gets here to do a comparison. MGW is pretty notchy, so we'll see which one stays in the car.

Yea, I have to say that I got my MGW in yesterday, and it is quite, umm.. clicky. You can feel each and every single gear click in, requires a little more effort as well, but I have mine at full reduction, 50%. I might go and turn it down a little.

I think your gonna like that Pro-5.0. I had a B&M short throw shifter and wouldn't even consider selling it to a fellow Stanger . I'm very satisfied with the Pro 5.0 ,even my wifes like the quick shift action.

Ive got the Hurst in my car----was the only one not on backorder when i bought it. Its held up fine for several years, and is abused from time to time. If the MGW was available when I bought the Hurst, its what I wouldve went with. Pro 5.0 feels nice in these cars too
