just curious who has used it, what your experience is with it and if you would've done something different if you had to do it all over again

 

i tried it. i didn't have much luck with it. i followed the instructions exactly and when the switch was turned on to kick the tranny down it fried the wire all the way to the tranny. i dunno why or how it happened but i took it iff and never tried it again. if i wanna down shift i just bang my ratchet shifter. going to a manual valve body soon.

 

I've used many of them over the years. It exactly mimics the electrical function of the factory setup, which is a switch mounted on the gas pedal bracket inside the car. The Hurst one works fine except that the bracket they supply is kind of weenie.

 

Weren't some of them on the throttle linkage under the hood?

 

Could be some like that, but all the ones I've ever worked on were on the gas pedal bracket. The Hurst one goes out there on the carb.
