i just bought a t-5 from a junked 91 z for $100.00 the only prob was it didnt come with a shifter so i bought a B&M ripper shifter, i installed it and im not really to fond on the way it shifts, Does stock Shift ***** fit on the ripper shifter? Anyone like the Ripper Shifter, some told me to buy a PRO 5.0, did i make a mistake by buying a ripper shifter?

Stock Shift ***** will fit on the ripper shifter, but I'am wondering why don't you like yours? I had mine in there for about 2 years and I like mine a lot.

Try out different ***** and see if that helps the feal, right now I have a ball **** out of a early 80's firebird that I like the best so far.

forgot to say....... i did a conversion i went from auto to manual and the t-5 tranny that i bought had no shifter on it, and im shifting without a ball, maybe thats the reason, i cant seem to find a descent shifter here, i've been to junkyards, and im not putting those gay shifter from autozone or strauss, anyone know where i can get a stock syle shifter for cheap?

I don't know about a stock style shifter ****, but get whatever know you like. If the threads don't match up, just fill the hole in the **** with JB Weld or some good epoxy. When it dries, drill it and tap it fit your shifter.
