Hurst shifters worth it?
Hey everyone, I'm just wondering if Hurst shifters are really worth the money. I mean compared to B&M for shirtshifter kits. The B&M's only 164.00 and the hurst is 300.00. Is hurst worth the xtra $ or is B&M good enough.

Many will disagree, but I thoroughly enjoy my B&M short throw. Why the Hurst would be more expensive, I'm unsure. I can say, however, that any after-market model will make you smile: The shifts are firm and sure.

Pro 5.0 is the way to go. My Tremec TKO came with a Hurst shifter & it is basically junk for any kind of performance driving.
