Do you want to go back to the original? If so, check out ecklers. I believe the bottom nut to that mounts the shifter to the trans is a half inch...

I have a Hurst T-handle on my '80. I have the round white Hurst ball that came with the shifter at work. I can check the thread tomorrow and get back to you if you don't already have the answer by then.

The handle should come with a set of thread adapters. I just measured my stock shifter on my '78. It measured .545" dia - 18. I'm guessing that it works out to a 9/16-18 thread but it's closer to a 35/64th so I don't know what threads are offered.

Yes get the Universal Fit 153-0019 brushed finish or chrome 153-0032 with the different thread adapters and use the one that fits your shifter lever.
