Default Standard Shift

Looking at ordering a Hurst Competition Plus Shifter and kit in my 76. Is there any tips to this? I have taken my shifter out before. Is this the best Mod or is there something better? e.g. different shifter or manufacturer. I know a 6 speed but? Thanks :cheers:

I had a Hurst in mine until about 2 months ago. It was a great shifter compared to the stock unit. I am installing a Tremec so I sold the shifter to someone here. Well worth the effort to put in a Hurst.

You might try a Long shifter unit, but admittedly more people will recommend Hurst.
