I have the Hurst classic black **** on my Hurst Billet Plus shifter. I like it because it reminds me of the old 60s and 70s muscle car shifters. Great feel! Very solid construction!!

Here's my shift ****. It was designed for primarily for "pistol-grip" shifting, but feels pretty good using the overhand style. Since I installed my BPP shifter however, it's pistol-grip most of the time for me.
