Default Shifter's (5 speed)

Whats the best feeling shifter for these transmissons? I probably going to go with Pro-50, Ive have good luck with them in my fox bodies. I like the looks and adjustability of the MGW, but I busted mine on my 05 mustang the first week I had it. Im just looking for a shifter that isn't a pos...... and I not to familar with the 3650's in the Mach's, Ive heard syncro scares, but it's seemed to love every power shift I throw at it, so Im just looking for that extra security

Thanks Ricky

Yea, Ive had a MGW before and it didn't last to long before it fell apart, rattle and vibrated, I had one on my 05 Mustang and it fell apart after one week no joke, the bushings that came with the thing a split and the shifter became really sloppy and started to lock me out of gears[:@]But the shifters for the 05 3650's are completly different than the 3650's in the GT's and the Machs. ( 05 up stangs the shifter's are mounted to the body of the car with linkage.

Pro 5.0 FTW.
I have had two so far, one in my 1990 GT and one in my 2002 GT. I found the '02 tomake alittle bit of noise thanmy '90. SoI trimmed the the stock shifter bushing and installed it, now it is factory quite.

Yea I think that im going to go with the PRO 5.0, I can't risk going through shifters like I did with the MGW[:@], I can't sport something I don't trust
