Re: Which shifter???
they are are perfectly fine shifters, but i have a thing for the pro 5.0. I think it is just built a little better

Re: Which shifter???
I just put on a B&M ripper today, and I love it. Really, its your choice. I agree with Meatyshells that the pro 5.0 is the best one overall.

Re: Which shifter???
either hurst or Pro 5.0 for me. the main reason being that you cant swap the stick out on the b&m or proform. I personally have the hurst and love it.Comment

Re: Which shifter???
