Thumbs up Installed Pro-5.0

Just installed my Pro-5.0 shifter today and absolutely love it! I cut an inch off the top and it's perfect. I'm still getting used to the 2nd-3rd feel, and haven't built up enough confidence to speed shift from 2-3 yet with the 5.0. When I shift quickly from 2-3 I get caught on a bolt which really pisses me off, but I guess I'll just have to get used to it before I start speed shifting. If you're going to get a Pro-5.0, get it from norcalstreet.com for $169.95 shipped. Great service.

I ordered mine from there yesterday. I also can't wait. Besides, can't beat that 30 day money back guarentee just incase.

With the Pro5.0 for the 2-3 shift just put your hand right flat on top of the shifter with your elbow at your side and your arm level. Push in the clutch an shove almost straight forward letting the shifter go where it wants to and bang your in 3rd. Don't try to aim it at the third gear notch. Let it do it's job and you'll be very happy with the results. I love mine.
