which of the short throw shifters, like mgw, steeda or b&m have the spring to automatically center the thing when its in neutral so u dont miss 3rd? im not talking about that chrome stick with the cueball 1 either.

ORIGINAL: RacquetballRyan

I have a hurst in my fox, and today I bought another hurst for my brothers 96 cobra
A lot smoother than the stock, and shorter too.
If you're an american you'll love it. Us lazy americans would rather shift 3 inches compared to around 8
Ballpark estimate
i'm the proudest mother f#cking american you'll ever meet in your life, and the MGW is the best f$cking shifter money can buy. thats just my two cents.
