Default Hurst Short Throw for C6

Does the same Hurst short throw that fit the C5 fit the C6? If not when is Hurst coming with a new one?

Is not the stock shifter on the C6 equivalent to what a short-throw kit did for the C5??

Yep, any shorter and you'll need a visegrip, that would be cool.

The Hurst shifter for a C5 fits perfectly in a C6. The throws are MUCH crisper & have a much more positive feel than the stock shifter in a C6.

The Hurst blows the stock C6 shifter away. I had one in my C5. Hurst does not make a shifter for the C6 yet. The one that Zip is selling (and calling a C6 shifter) is for a C5. Thats why they state that you can't use your stock handle. Personally, I think its that they call it a C6 shifter. I think they also advertise a K&N filter for the C6...but if you call K&N they will tell you that they don't have one for the C6 yet
