Put a Steeda Tri-ax in my car. Works very well.

I have a Tri Ax as well, but on my TKO. Excellent shifter. I've heard MGW is excellent as well.

Just get something made from good quality material with positive stops.

I had a tri ax... shifted too hard, snapped the handle in half, and broke my radio...

I have a Pro5.0 on my tremec right now, I have had a Hurst, and B&M.

The B&M was my favorite

Haha, that's a bit impressive. I know the handle the Tri-Ax comes with is a really light cast AL. But I have a Restomod remote mount shifter attached to the Tri-Ax in my 67, since the older 'stangs have a long reach to the shifter. That thing is beefcake.

I had a Hurst on my old Toploader, never had any issues with it.

Was the B&M the Ripper Shifter?
