Default Hurst Shift ****

Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a shifter **** available with a 9/16'-18 thread that is smaller than 2.25" in diameter and has the 6 speed pattern on the top? Most of the Hurst shift ***** i have ever driven with are 1.75", but i just bought a Hurst billet plus shifter for my C6 and the **** that goes with it feels way too big in your hand. I can use my factory ****, but i kinda like the look of the hurst, i just don't think i will ever get used to the size of this ****. Feels like a cue ball. The only ones listed on the Hurst website with a 6 speed pattern and a 9/16-18 thread are the 2.25 inch. Just curious if anyone has or knows what im looking for. Thanks

Check the thread carefully. My 01Z05 had a SP.metric thread that i had to buy a tap for. I Am not sure but i have it in my tool box at work. check it 2mro. Check out SUMMIT. I got the Hurst shifter there with the correct ball.

I have the correct ball for the shifter, it fits and the thread is 9/16-18. It actually looks good too, my complaint is just because the **** feels bulky in your hand. And none of the 1.75" diameter ***** have this thread. They have a much smaller 3/8 or 7/16 or something metric
