Default Which shifter

I will be removing the trans soon to do a clutch and flywheel change, so I was thinking about changing the shifter at the same time, what I need are opinions on which I should use, a hurst, B&M ripper or get one from the zf Dr.

Hurst was the best upgrade I ever did to my 96....a world of difference, previous vette had B-M and was not a smooth shift at alll....G

Absolutely love my Hurst. I drove a C5 Z06 with a B&M, and the pattern was just too darn tight for my liking.

hurst for the street and B&M for track. I have the B&M and love it. The throw is extremely short but also very stiff to pull which makes for no missed shifts on the track.
