what aftermarket shifter to go with

[mikeneedacar]

i am tired of the loose stock shifter and what something more solid, what shifter do i go with and what would be the easiest to install. thanks

I take it your talking about the shifter handle? If so this one would be your best pick IMO and easiest to install.......

i am talking about the whole shifter. thanks

i think b&m quarter stick and lightning rods work there might be some minor adjustments

we have had good luck with the B&M Megashifter

I like the Hurst Quarterstick.

is there one that doesn't require much modification to the top trim plate on the shifter

what megashifter kit do i get. the universal one. i have a megashifter from my 78 camaro that has the boot and cable what else do i need

 

[azgn]

universal kit....get the heavy duty cable (separate item)

the one that comes with the kit is a puny thing that will fail very soon

Forget the megashifter. If you want the absolute coolest shifter ever made, this is for you:

ELECTRONIC SHIFTER

Without a doubt it's the most high-tech shifter ever. You could mount it into the shifter plate, and you'd have no visible shift handle.

I'm using this in my latest build PROJECT

The Quicksilver fits under the console and other than the knob, could be mistaken for stock in a glance. There's some pics in the sig link. There are many threads on this topic. Do a search and you'll see lots of pics. I've seen Woody's Mega and it looks good to me as well.
