MGW Shift **** Question
Will the MGW gripper shift **** fit on a c5 z06 shifter? Are the thread sizes compatible?
In other words will this

Screw onto a C5Z06 shifter without modifications?
Thank you

I wonder if MGW is making a shifter for the 'Vette yet? They supposedly make the ULTIMATE Mustang shifter. Everyone on the forums RAVE about them!!!! I have a Steeda, so don't know how their shifter works.

I have the same one from WCC. It is a direct thread with a set screw to hold it in place. Installation is a no-brainer.It's a good looking shift **** and it is much easier to grip than the Delrin I previously had on there. My only gripe was I only wish the grip surface was more "imitation leather" and less "actual plastic"... something I would expect for a $70 ****.
Overall, I'm satisfied with it ... looks great with the Hurst SS
