Short throw Shifter
I have an 02 Z06 I put a Hurst short throw shifter in it and I get a rattle and vibration noise when the car goes past 3500 RPM.
Any sugestions to fix the Hurst or recomend another brand?

Well let me direct you to the top of the forum where it says SEARCH.
Put in words like C5 Hurst shifter rattle and hit go...........and look at all the post there are regarding this issue. I realize this is your 2nd post, and so you may not know about the search function. It's a good tool to gather info in a hurry rather than waiting for members to reply to your specific request.
If you don't find an exact answer there is the TECH forum too.......
I've seen a lot of posts regarding the rattle so I'm sure you will be able to find some help in previous posts.

I'm curious how you installed it. I cut the metal ring off of the bottom of the shifter gasket and mounted it normally and use a Hurst classic shift ball with no issues at all.

I am with Stump5, I also recently installed a Hurst shifter and have a rattle. I rechecked the directions to make sure that I did everything corect, but I have the rattling problem too. I did not change the **** because I want it to look as stock as possible.

i assume that you have the NEW version which looks like it has the shift **** mount rubber isolated from the lower shaft?
I have the old style, which is just a solid 1 piece shaft, but I need another shifter for my other car, so....
please let us know how it works out for you.
Is the Hurst a 1 piece solid shaft?
I would prefer that, in case I want to cut it down
Thx
