Quick, easy question.... I was considering buying the short-throw shifter that SLP sells for 100 bux and was wondering if it has the same throw distance and qaulity as some of the other more expensive shifters(B&M,Hurst,Etc.). Just wondering if its worth throwing down the extra cash for a differnt shifter or if the SLP One is just as good. Thanx for all advice in advance......

 

I have owned the SLP shifter before. I bought a Pro 5.0 thinking there's a big difference between the two. Sometimes I think I might have wasted my money.

The SLP shifter is a good piece. The only difference being the base isn't a solid block of aluminum and it doesn't have adjustable stops. No biggie.

 

The SLP requires you to reuse the stock lever, which has the rubber bushing in it that contributes to the "sloppy" feel. The SLP unit is a copy of the Hurst Competition Plus, but has a thinner cover plate than the Hurst as well - I've compared the SLP and the Hurst side-by-side. I found the Pro 5.0 to be significantly better than the Competition Plus (back when the car had the T56).

 

Get this...you wont be dissapointed.

I have an SLP that came with my car when I bought it. I would sell it to you for $50. I have a ripper now that I like better but I can't compare the SLP to stock (since I have never had one). I can give you picks if you want. Let me know if you want it.

Thanx for the replys everyone, I was wondering if it was worth it. Ohh and SlickBlack I was just looking at that every same piece... I might just get that, can't go wrong for that price...

 

in a way that package is a waste...

reason for me being, i like my round ****..so a $40 H engraved **** is pointless. second i have directions on how to do $25 skip shift module for less than $1 on my webpage (signature).

and third...i have a short stick i machined...it has an option of 2 lenghts...
selling the short stick for a good price and it will fit stock, factory Hurst, and SLP shifters. pics are also on my page.
