Default How about the Mallett shifter??

I have gotten input on the Hurst and Kirban shifters and have eliminated the Kirban shifter from consideration for my C5. But how 'bout the Mallett? Worth the money? And does everyone have the problem getting into reverse with the Hurst? I need some input from someone with a Mallett :confused: Thanks - new kid on the block :chevy

Seems alittle to high priced for a pretty much stock shifter, I think I could make that same **** with the milling machine at work. :thumbs:

Tom,
I 've put the question to the CF members and they seem to like the Ripper alot. Why have you eliminated the Kirban?

you can also modify you stock shifter for much cheaper than any aftermarket shifter! :cheers:

Everything related to Mallett is over priced and not worth the money.
