Hey guys, I currently have the b&m ripper shifter. I know the shift handle I want is not compatible with the ripper shifter here is the handle http://www.summitracing.com/parts/huu-5388660/overview/ . I have always liked the old school pistol shifter but thought they were more of a mopar theme. My question is this shifter says it only works for newer mustangs and challengers, is it compatible with a hurst shifter for a t56, and does anyone have a suggestion for the best hurst shifter that I can use to make all this work? Thanks in advance guys, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Im guessing this was a dumb question by the lack of response?

Go to the Hurst website and search the "specs" page for both the shifter you are looking at (probably the "Billet Plus") and also the shifter handle
verify the hole spacing @ mounting is the same??

They most likely have it listed for that certain applications, due to the handle "location" in the car and/ or console???

I currently have a Hurst Billet Plus on my T56 (LS1/F-body) and running a Twist Machine handle
Maybe going to a MGW shifter soon

I'm running this one in my Camaro with a T56 Mag. Love it, tight and precise.

that looks like a much better shifter than the Billet Plus model for the f-body T56

That one is their most recent model with internal seal.

It is a real pleasure to use........IMO.
