I thought the stock T56 shifters were pretty damn good...

stock Hurst is nice, but a little squishy. A 6" short stick with the stock Hurst is a nice setup, but the MGW and pro 5.0 are both quality shifters as well

Finally got it installed. It is new, smudge was my fault. Had Lou's Short Stick before with stock Hurst shifter. Was good, but wanted something different and "better". So far, the little I've played with it, the shifter is nice. haven't got a chance to really let it rip though...went out a few mins ago and started to blast down a street...saw a cop, let off...he went down a side street to circle around where I normally do my pulls and I said **** that and went home lol.
