Default Aftermarket shift *****?

Anyone w/ a B&M have an aftermarket **** that does not rattle? Pics would be great.
Thanks.

What type of shifter **** are you using on the B&M shifter? Is it the threaded kind or is it the kind you slip over and tighten a collar screw at the bottom on?

Default Using the factory ****

factory **** = slotted, screwed tightened style right now, but looking to replace that with an aftermarket shift ****, now that I've looked, I will probably get a Momo shift **** and those are slotted I believe, so don't really need thread size.

If you go with the type that slides over(momo), take up the slack with some electrical tape so that it fits snuggly over the shifter shaft. Then tighten the bottom screw. Otherwise it'll loosen up all on it's own in time. It will feel much more solid that way.

Thread size is 9/16-18. Any of the threaded C5 replacement ***** will work. Of course, a Momo or Sparco (and many others) that uses the three set screws at the base will work on that shifter as well.
