I think it all comes down to personal oppinion, use both and decide for yourself.
I'm running a hurst and love it. But that's not to say the B&M isn't just as good.
You'll find members who support both shifters here.

As long as you can live with a little rattle, the Hurst is great stuff... (and you will find supporters of either, and they are both good)

I have the B&M Sport Shifter, and I love it. I think the Hurst has more adjustment capabilities, but both are a big improvement over stock.
I don't think you can go wrong either way.

As others have already mentioned, either shifter will work. I purchased and installed a Hurst .

After having for a year, I shortened it an additional 1.2 inches. I love it.
Good luck with your decision.
