Default What kind of short shifter and clutch should i get??

Hi, so far for the short shifter i had in mind is either a pro 5.0 or an b&m short shifter, are these good, i am trying to find a good short shifter that won't really cost that much but is also good. For the clutch what kind of brand or is a six puck clutch a good idea with a lighter flywhell?? I would like to hear some brands and opinon on what i should get for my 95 get thanks hope to here from u guys soon!

pro 5.0 shifter is a good choice and for clutch...no need for a puck style clutch...a spec stage 1 will do for a stock to mild build

I have the spec stage 3 six puck style. But as mjr said there is no need for a puck design unless your heavily modded. Mine is not a daily driver either.

Check out the MGW shifter, it is by far the best. Its fully adjustable. It may be $20 more but its worth it, I also run Spec stage 2 and its a good clutch

Hurst shortie or MGW and a centerforce dual friction.
